How do you know when it is time to replace (vs, just replacing in 3 or 6 months--as these are expensive filters)?

Although it is recommended to replace the filter after one year, I do that when the flow of water has diminished appreciably. I suggest you watch the amount of water coming off the filter before and after replacing it, remember, and you will be able to decide when to replace the filter just by watching the water flow.

I just put a piece of blue tape with the install date on the filter and replace in a year or if the flow slows appreciably (which in my usage/experience takes > 1 year). The filters have gotten more expensive - I used to get them for $70-80 so now I wait longer to replace :)

I try to replace them every 6 months. They are expensive but better than drinking bad water. Unfortunately there is no gage or monitor for this system. Also, use extreme caution in installation. They can leak if not perfectly seated on the gasket ring. The leak will be explosive, not slow.

Everpure recommends that the filter be changed once a year. To help you remember, they include a water filter monitor, which you activate upon installation. Basically, it's a countdown timer. When the time expires, an alarm will sound. Hope this helps.

We recommend changing the filter every 6 to 8 months. However, the filter life will depend upon the environment in which it is used.

On the old models I changed every 30 days. This one, with filter A, says it will last 3-6 months. I haven't had this one long enough to know for sure.

if you keep the filters cleaned on a regular schedule they should last for many years. check your cleaning requirements (very simple and easy to do)

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.

The filters need to be replace every 3 years but you do need to back wash them every 6 months.

We easily get 3 months from each filter. If you use A/C 24/7 I'd say every 2 months.

I think manufacturer recommends every 2-5 years for membrane (we can usually tell because the water flow decreases), other filters are every 6 months. Check out this link: http://www.premierh2o.com/filter-replacement-guide

When the filter needs to be changed, the water flow slows down. It all depends on how many contaminants are in your water. My water is pretty clean, so I only have to replace the filter every 6 months.

I've been using mine for 6 months and haven't washed the filter yet...oops. It hasn't seemed to need it though.

Naturally, it depends on how much you use it, but we get at least a month or two out of each filter. We can tell by the taste when it needs to be changed.

Depends on the faucet you have installed. Some faucets have a "filter life" indicator which tells you when to replace.

The filter lasts for at least 6 months. If you don't use it much then it can last more than 6 months.

When I bought the system it said on the box that for a family of 4 the filter should last about 1 year or something like that - now depending also of usage. I would at least change it once a year even twice in fact as I got more filters with my last order.

These are replacement filters for the suggested 1 year maintenance, I haven't heard of any "new" filter designs. I'd also consider stretching the timeline, depending on the quality of your water. You may realize you won't need to switch filters as often as Ispring recommends.

It mainly depends on how dirty is the air in your place. I replaced mine (the main expensive filter) after 3 years. But I think I could easily have stretch out to 4+ yrs. As far as the outer dust filter, I replace it annually or just wash and use. There was no instructions on that.

What is your question? I can't understand why these filters would expire after two or three years if you have not installed them.Perhaps the expiration applies if they've been installed and water has run through them. If you install and let them sit there for three years I can then understand having to change them after two/three year; even if they just sat there unused.
