How do you know when to replace the filters?

Usually it's about every year for us, but definitely when you can taste the difference in the water.

Hi Mike, I have a meter that measures TDS. This will usually run around 30ppm. When it increases to over 100ppm and/or output significantly decreases, I replace the membrane. I have not yet replaced the prefilters but monitor them visually.

The system manual recommends changing the pre and post filters every 6 months and the membrane every 1-2 years. I don't use a lot of water and my city water is very clear so I am planning to change all the elements every 5 years. Good luck

It depends on how much stuff you have in the air (I have a lot!) but the recommendation is to replace the black filter every 3 months and the big white one annually.

Directions say one filter is rel\placed at 6 months and second is replaced at one year. Sorry, I do not remember which gets replaced at which time frame.

Dear Sharon, When I did locate the filters last year, I found that they cost almost as much as a new unit, so I bought a new one. Really hard to throw away something that works; built in obsolescence to the max. And I suppose I will do it again next year.

The filters are typically replaced annually. The membrane should be replaced every 3-5 years. These figures are for typical municipal water conditions. Part# B000F5M6V6

There is a pre-filter that you have to change. There is an indicator to tell you when to change filters. How often depends on what setting you run. I run mine at medium 24/7, high for 1 hour after vacuuming. I change filters about every1 1/2 - 2 months. They're not expensive.

When the filter needs changing....yes!!! It's gross. And, the filters don't last long!

The date you put in the filter so you know when to replace it. Like on a Brita filter.

Manufacturer says 1 yr. I doubt if we have to replace ours at 1 yr, just vacuum the pre filter monthly. That will make a big difference on how long the filter lasts.

Hi there! I change mine every month as they are quite inexpensive. I'm not sure if there is any clear way to tell "when" they need to be replaced unless you perform some type of chemistry test on the water. One other thing I do is I always fill the pet fountain up with water from the refrigerator that has a filter. I think the bottom line is to just use good common sense and keep an eye on how your pet is doing health wise!

I have not changed the filter in my units yet. I have cleaned them, meaning I have knocked the dust off them. But I have not replaced them. There is a small somewhat fragile one in there that you want to be careful with as I guess there is no replacement. The other is larger, maybe paper although I don't remember for sure. This is the one I have knocked the dust off.

Replacement filters may be purchased direct from the manufacturer. Honestly we only need to replace them once a year as I clean the machine once a month with a vacuum/ brush and microfiber cloth. We've all had our filters (2-3 in each housed) for 4-5 years. I just bought a new one for another bedroom. Excellent air purifiers.

We've had ours for about a year. No issues yet, just need to change the filter.

I think the manual says every 6 month, but I bought mine in January and I havent seen the check filter light come on yet...

Right below the cool air exhaust there is a tab which is part of the filter. You just pull up on it. There is also an indicator light on the unit that tells you when it is time to the change the filter.

Clean the filter after each use, or when the Neato tells you to. As for replacing the filter, I purchased a set of spares and rotate the use of them, allowing me to always have a clean, dry filter in case my little "dumbot" fills up before finishing the job.

When you start to notice less water coming through the device, you take out the filter and flip it over. You should then have at least another 3 months before you need to completely replace the filter.
