So I have a carbon block filter on the air intake coming from the outside to pick up any pollen, dust and inadvertent pesticides. I was wondering though how often is anyone using something similar changing the carbon filter? If there any way to calculate air intake volume / time to a change interval based on a standard RO carbon block? I was thinking monthly but not sure if that is enough or too frequent and throwing away a filter that still has life.
