Compressor air filter water separator

I have a Craftsman air filter water separator that separated water ok in the
beginning but is letting it through now. I've disassembled the unit and the
50 micron element is the only possible problem even though no problem is
visible.

I can get the elements from Sears for $2.75 ea. + shipping. Question is, how
many to get? I've had the compressor for a long time but the filter hasn't
seen a tremendous amount of use. If this failure is common why aren't the
elements sold where compressors are sold? Anyone have an opinion what the
life of these elements should be?

I would get 2 of them. If the new ones go out rather quickly, then toss
the whole unit and look for a new one from a different manufacturer. How
close is the unit to the compressor? How much air line is downstream of
the filter? Could it be that the warmer weather is creating condensation
in your line downstream from the filter? Well, provided that you have a
lot of it anyways.
