Pam,
Did you reset your change filter light when you changed the filter? Please consult your owners manual for instructions on how to reset the change filter light.
Pam says
Hi! We just replaced whirlpool every drop #1 water filter and followed your instructions but the replace filter light still comes on. It’s WRS571CIHZ
Kory says
Hi Dennis, it sounds like there could be some air quality issues. We suggest running an air quality test (an example of one can be found here https://www.filtersfast.com/Filters-Fast-IAQ-Test-Kit.asp) to determine what could be causing the filters to not last as long. Also, what type (fiberglass,pleateed, HEPA, etc.) and brand of air filters are you using?
Dennis says
Why does these heat and Ac filters turn dark grey after only a week or two use?
Kory says
A MERV 11 air filter is recommended for household purposes. More information can be found here: http://www.filtersfast.com/blog/index.php/2013/07/difference-between-merv-ratings/
Joe says
How do I determine if the furnace filter I am using is restricting to much air flow. Last winter my HVAC guy said the one I was using was in fact too restrictive so I replaced it with a more basic filter. I want filter as much as I can, but not cause harm to my HVAC unit.
Thank you.

Please answer. Do I have an agreement with your organization for replacement filters?
Kory says
If your filter is made with #5 plastic, then your recycling center may accept the filter cartridge for recycling.
