How long it lasts
Replace it when it is damaged. Dyson gives no replacement interval and says to wash the filter once a month.
After replacing: Dyson: wash in cold water only, no detergent, squeeze out and leave to dry for at least 24 hours before refitting; a damp filter can damage the motor.
Flow slows and taste drops off as the filter fills up. Changing on time is the whole point.
