The ice maker filter is usually replaced every 6 months.

However, this time interval may be affected by various factors, so it needs to be adjusted according to the actual situation:

1. Water quality:

(1) Poor water quality: If the water quality in your area is harder or has more impurities, the filter will saturate and fail faster. In this case, it may take 3-4 months or even shorter to replace it.

(2) Good water quality: In areas with soft water or preliminarily filtered water sources, the lifespan of the filter may be extended, up to 9 months to 1 year, but it is not recommended to exceed 1 year.

2. Frequency of use and ice making capacity of the ice maker:

(1) Commercial ice makers (restaurants, bars, hotels, etc.): with extremely high frequency of use and huge ice making capacity, the water flow through the filter element is fast, the total amount is large, and the filter consumption is faster. It usually needs to be replaced every 3-6 months, or even more frequently.

3. Filter type:

(1) Standard pre filter cartridges typically have a lifespan of around 6 months.

(2) Some advanced filters may have a longer claimed lifespan, but it still needs to be judged based on actual water quality and usage.
