How often would I need to do a cleaning on the filter, and how long would it last?

The filter for this unit is not cleanable. The prescreen that surrounds the filter is. What everyone has said is true: replace when pumping becomes hard to pump.

Be aware, the 200-250 gallon filter replacement estimation is very subjective & based entirely upon quality of water. Simply stated, when your filter becomes noticeably harder to pump, replace the filter!

For maximum performance, cartridge should be replaced after 200 gallons (approx. 750 liters) or when the unit becomes hard to pump.
