How long it lasts
Replace every 6 months — the appliance's filter light tells you when.
After fitting: Press and hold 'Reset Water Filter' for 3 seconds; a tone sounds when reset (Westinghouse WHE6874/WHE7074 user manual).
Flow slows and taste drops off as the filter fills up. Changing on time is the whole point of the filter.

This filter is due every 6 months. We'll email you when it's time — free, no spam.
