How will I know when the filter needs to be change? Does it have an indicator?

There is no indicator on the filter. In the package with the filter it indicates 6 months of normal usage and then you reverse it in the case for 6 more months of normal usage. So one filter is good for 12 months according to the packaging. I would equate normal usage to 2 to 3 people taking a shower everyday. If you are a single person living alone, I would think a year between filter changes. For more clarity I would email the company, though.

You have to open it and change the filter. I do this every other month only I hose the old one down

Yes, there is a filter in the unit. I also purchased an extra filter to be prepared when it's time to change it. From other posts on Amazon, I believe the original filter lasts about a year. I've had it for about 6 months and haven't had to change it yet. Hope that helps!

I haven't had that issue but I think I still can help. Your fridge should have an indicator when the filter needs to be changed, BUT if it doesn't, then on average, every 3 to 4 months is what I use for a guide. However, I HAVE discovered that there are times when the water speed is very slow, & not strong, however even though the indicator isn't showing the need for a change, if I change the filter the flow is perfect again. So, I reckon you should try changing it if it's been about 3 - 4 mos. If that doesn't help the ice poduction for you, I'd check with the manufacturer. Guess they just don't make 'em like they used to. Hope that helped you.

I usually switch them when the filter gets dirty (usually on the inside) and/or loss in suction. Hope this helps

Yes there is a very large filter in the center of the unit. It needs to be changed periodically. The filter will turn brown and get stiff. There's an indicator light when the filter needs to be changed. I had unit a humidifier without a unit and it left a white film over my furniture and floor. I got rid of that one!

No, there is no indicator but that would be nice. You just have to replace after 12-18 months depending on your usage

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.

Mine hasn't been working either. I thought maybe it was because the company sent me a replacement filter because this one was out of stock. It had the same "button" you push to get the indicator started but it never changed.

Depends on how much the furnace runs, and the amount of particulates in the air. If you get one of these: G99 Air Filter Gage it will tell you when you should change the filter. When you're buying a filter this pricey, it will pay for itself.

No.... There are no settings or options to show how long the unit has been running. There is a setting to remind you to change the filter after a preset number of running hours. Thats it.

Hello. You just need to hold down the filter button until it resets. That should work!

It depends on how much of the filter is covered. I change the filter before each time I use it.

Replace the white filter when it blackens. I have to replace it about every 3 months

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