How long it lasts
Usually every 12 months.
After replacing: Shark: rinse filters in water only (no soap), squeeze out and air-dry for at least 24 hours before refitting; a damp filter can damage the motor. No reset.
Flow slows and taste drops off as the filter fills up. Changing on time is the whole point.
