Is it cleanable or are there replaceable filter elements?

Hi, the handle on the top exposes the replacement element which is the 2010tmor. They run about $8.00 each. Best, John

There are no filters. One of the beauties of this machine is that nearly all of its parts can be cleaned in the dishwasher. I don't put the heating element in the dishwasher.

Not quite sure what the problem is: Yes, there are three parts to the "filter" which disassemble for cleaning purposes, but should be rethreaded together before using. I'm not aware of any plastic inside the unit.

The replacement filters are tied on. With regular cleaning I've been using the same cloth filter for three months and going strong.

have you noticed any difference after cleaning the filter since it is not replaceable? did it damage it? that is a concern because i am definitely looking for a hepa air purifier with a pre-filter..

No. You do have about 3 filters that get replaced at various times. They are not washable. A display screen on the top will indicate which filter needs to be replaced. We have had ours about 2.5 years and I have replaced one filter at about $50 and a second filter is needed at a cost of $150+

Yes. The filter is washable and removable. The water will not stay as fresh if the filter is not used.

Absolutely you can clean the filters , you can rinse the filters with cool running water and one filter can last for months. its been three months so far since I've actually replaced a filter . I purchased a pack of three filters and I'm still on the first one using this method .

Yes, the filter is easily cleaned...haven't used on fine dust but is in frequent use in classroom and one young fella is enjoying getting rid of all the dust he finds! I haven't had it very long so don't know how often to replace them.

Abdul, the filter can be taken out and washed and reused. It is a reusable filter.

There is a cartridge filter that you take out and use a hose to clean it. The filter works great and well worth the cost.

We have two of the units and find that the filters cannot be cleaned and reused; instead, they must be replaced. It would be nice if re-usable/cleanable replacement filters were available.

This unit comes with a permanent filter that can be washed and reused. There is also a light on the unit that tells when the filter needs to be cleaned.

As best as I can remember there is a stainless disc holding the filter screen. I don't have the unit with me at this time so can't be 100% sure but the rest of the unit is all stainless.

I do not believe you will have to replace it. The part that removes the bad stuff is a 0.1 Micron absolute hollow fiber membrane inline filter so there is nothing that will get old. Also all you have to do to clean it is back flush it. For the price it is a great filter.

There are three filters One permanent, two replaceable. You should "clean" and re-use the initial filter monthly depending on the work load. I haven't had this unit very long so I just take the front cover off and visually check the filter. The cover is very easy to remove & replace. The other two filters are expected to last around 18 months. They have to be replaced, not cleaned. When the cover is off there are a series of led lights telling you the condition of the filters. By the way, removal and replacement of the filters is really easy.
