Filters should be changed every 4 to 6 weeks when the fitter is realy dirty and falling apart

I haven't tried washing the filter yet, but I went on the companies website & this is the information the gave: WASHING YOUR FILTER Many of the filters that Crucial Vacuum manufactures are washable and reusable. Washing your filter is an important part of vacuum cleaner maintenance. If your filter is not clean, your vacuum will have a hard time absorbing and eliminating dirt. Improper cleaning of the filter reduces the suction capability of the vacuum over time. STEP 1: You should ideally clean your filter after every 3-4 uses. Before cleaning your filter you should refer to the vacuums manual. STEP 2: When removing dust from the filter, chances are it will spread around the air, it is best to take the filter outside. Tap the filter gently on the side of the garbage so that most of the dust falls out. STEP 3: If your filter is NOT washable, it will be adversely affected if you wash it. Rinse the outside surface of filter with cold-luke warm running water (do not use soap). STEP 4: If you washed the filter, air-dry 24-48 hours before you replace it in the vacuum. Once the filter is clean and dry, you can put it back into the vacuum. IMPORTANT: Do not brush your filter. Do not clean you filter with abrasive materials. Do not scrub your filter between the pleats. *Even with regular cleaning, most vacuum filters have a specific lifespan and must be replaced regularly. Replace your Crucial Vacuum filter every 3-6 months. Hope that's helpful.

We found our replacement filters sold at a retail store where we live. I am not sure if they are sold everywhere but they are sold out there!

The SRWH is a sealed unit and does not have a replacement filter. Discard at the end of the filter life (about 1 year).

The filter is supposed to last for 2 years. I would order the new filter from Zojirushi at Amazon.com

Nothing like stating the obvious but did you allow your filter to dry out completely? That would be an important step and if your not sure try washing it thoroughly and dry at least over night to 24 hrs. I've washed mine and honestly let it dry out a few days before I attempt using it. I hope that helps.

What I've done was made sure that I allowed the filters to completely dry out once a week. And if I remembered made sure to wash the filters. I washed in the dishwasher and worked fine. I may start to wash more by hand with vinegar as that may allow the filters to last longer...in my opinion. I hope this helps.

We were not able to find out where to get the filter however, we just cleaned it with water and it works great. Hope that helps

the filter is thin and had to be clean a lot. I purchased a replacement from Lowe's for about $30 but thicker and a better filter

My dog got a hold of the filter and now I need a replacement. Do they make one?

You either did not wash it well enough, or did not give it sufficient time to dry. But a new filter would also solve the problem.

Not sure why you are asking me how long this filter lasts. It was a disappointment from the beginning. I would not recommend it regardless of length of life

I am very distressed to learn that the replacement filter is no longer available. This was a significant purchase for me as I am retired and living on Social Security. If I had known that the filters would be discontinued, I never would have made this purchase. I might as well just throw it away if the filter cannot be washed. I feel that Amazon.com should give those that purchased this unit a refund if it's been less than a year.

I bought a Krups perm filter at Bed, Bath and Beyond. If they don't have it at the store they can prob order it.

First of all the cleaner the filter, the faster it filters. When it is new, it will filter the full amount in about 6 hours. After the filter gets some use, it will take a bit longer. I take mine out and wash them every 3-4 months and change them once a year.

This product does not have a filter, as it is the recirculating fan system. Your filter is in the main hood system which can be replaced in about 20 seconds.
