I haven't had to. It seems like you can just rinse it out and it will be fine. I usually sit it under water and it's fine. As long as it's not ripped. Not sure how to replace it though.

I have and wood floors so it's fine. If you have carpet... Hmmm. I say look elsewhere. Just FYI.

I am sorry to say that I can not answer your question as I returned the H20 Vac because it didn't work very well & I was not satisfied. If you want a really good H20 Vacuum look into Rainbow Vacuum, but they are pretty expensive but well worth it.

Hello- I haven't had to replace anything yet. I use this at our place at the beach. The only thing I've had to do so far is vacuum the filter. That says a lot considering our place is beachfront and the wind is constantly blowing dust and sand into any possible opening it can find.

If your home water is satisfactory, you do not need to replace the filter. When you believe the filter has used up its usefulness, pull it out and throw it away. The coffee machine will continue to work just fine.

It has one they recommend include and it does need replacing. The down side I found was how often you have to soak the unit in vinegar to get rid I the minerals in the water. You can also soak the filter to prolong life but sooner than you would want , it falls apart. This machine performs really well, but, with refilling the tank and cleaning, it's a lot of maintainence. However, it think they all are.

This is the second time I've gotten this question, and the answer is the same: This is a USED filter. Who ever Amazon is listing as the seller Amazon should look into because they are selling used filters & should not be selling to people on Amazon! Please notify Amazon about the issue so Amazon can take the seller off the site. There is no reason that water should be dripping out of a new filter!

As long as you already have the cartridge the filter goes into then yes, just buy the replacement filter.

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

Hi. From what I could gather from the instruction, the filter screen is a rinse and reuse item. No replacement necessary. I imagine if you used it so much that you just totally wore it out, you would just replace the while thing. Otherwise, just rinse, it seems.

I believe you replace the entire cartridge...there is no replacing just the filter. You can order a prefilter that snaps over the top of the 6001. I think it is 5000 something. Mike

I ordered this replacement and it works http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000B8URLI/ref=oh_details_o06_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I have read that you are supposed to replace the filter 1xper year, but who knows what kind of usage they are basing that off of. I replaced mine after only 4 or 5 months (when I started noticing a considerable difference), but I hadn't realized until afterward that you are supposed to reverse the filter every 30 days. I am hoping if I do that it will last at least a few more months this time.

Is this the first time you've used the unit? If so, I wonder if you didn't install it correctly...? On the other hand, if you've been using the filter for some time, it probably needs to be cleaned. Remove the filter, let it dry, then scrub with sandpaper, rinse in plain water, then re-install. At least, that's what I do when the filter stops working. Eventually, I need to buy a new filter.

Ours did the same thing. If you start googling reviews on it, you will see that this is a common problem. It is almost impossible to get rid of. The company says that it is because you live in an area with REALLY bad water. Therefor you need to change the filter every 1-2 weeks. A scam in my opinion.

There is no filter that needs replacing. The Optimus comes with a "permanent" filter. They're like little marble balls in a cone with slots in it. It just needs to be rinsed when you clean the unit.

You probably have to send to the company. Although, the filter that comes with it is a perminant filter.

You clean it with a damp sponge. If that doesn't clean it completely, you can wash it with soapy water. You have to make sure it is completely dry before putting it back in. You never need a replacement filter.

I believe it is. I bought mine some time ago and put it away. I am moving soon I wanted to save it for my new place. I went on line to Amazon and checked the page and they show a replacement filter for it, so it looks like it is replaceable. I never checked it out before for myself, glad I did. Good question...
