The duration of use and replacement frequency may vary due to different brands, models, and usage environments. Generally, filter pipes can be used for 6 to 12 months, but some brands claim their filter pipes can last even longer.

The lifespan of the filter pipe depends on the material and design of its internal filter cartridge. The primary function of the filter cartridge is to remove impurities, odors, and bacteria from the water, providing cleaner and safer drinking water. Over time, the filter cartridge will gradually become saturated and lose its effectiveness, failing to filter out pollutants from the water efficiently. Therefore, regular replacement of the filter cartridge is crucial to ensure the持续性 of filtration and the safety of the water quality.
