Water-transporting household appliance with a filter unit for filtering fluids with a filter housing with at least one wall element, a filter assembly, wherein the filter assembly comprises at least one first component and at least one second component, wherein the at least one first component has at least one filter membrane for filtering the fluid and the at least one second component comprises a squeegee unit, which cleans the at least one filter membrane, wherein the squeegee unit has at least one squeegee arm and the at least one squeegee arm is essentially in contact with the at least one filter membrane, at least one fluid inlet opening, through which fluid flows into the filter unit, at least one filter inlet opening, which is embodied in the region of the filter membrane and through which the fluid flows out from the filter housing, characterised in that a removal opening is embodied on the filter housing, via which at least one of the components (19a, 19b) of the filter assembly can be removed from the filter housing in a removal direction such that dirt particles accumulated in the filter housing remain, wherein the squeegee unit extends from the filter membrane to the removal opening and wherein the squeegee unit is embodied without undercuts relative to the removal direction, wherein, "without undercuts" here means that there is no gap or free space embodied between the squeegee unit and the at least one wall element, in which dirt particles can build up or accumulate, wherein the squeegee unit is thus essentially embodied to be in contact with the at least one wall element such that no accumulation of dirt particles can form between the at least one wall element and the squeegee unit, wherein a limiting element is embodied for delimiting the filter unit, and wherein the at least one wall element has a height H, which extends from the filter membrane to the at least one limiting element, and the squeegee unit extends essentially over the height H. a filter housing with at least one wall element, a filter assembly, wherein the filter assembly comprises at least one first component and at least one second component, wherein the at least one first component has at least one filter membrane for filtering the fluid and the at least one second component comprises a squeegee unit, which cleans the at least one filter membrane, wherein the squeegee unit has at least one squeegee arm and the at least one squeegee arm is essentially in contact with the at least one filter membrane, at least one fluid inlet opening, through which fluid flows into the filter unit, at least one filter inlet opening, which is embodied in the region of the filter membrane and through which the fluid flows out from the filter housing, characterised in that a removal opening is embodied on the filter housing, via which at least one of the components (19a, 19b) of the filter assembly can be removed from the filter housing in a removal direction such that dirt particles accumulated in the filter housing remain, wherein the squeegee unit extends from the filter membrane to the removal opening and wherein the squeegee unit is embodied without undercuts relative to the removal direction, wherein, "without undercuts" here means that there is no gap or free space embodied between the squeegee unit and the at least one wall element, in which dirt particles can build up or accumulate, wherein the squeegee unit is thus essentially embodied to be in contact with the at least one wall element such that no accumulation of dirt particles can form between the at least one wall element and the squeegee unit, wherein a limiting element is embodied for delimiting the filter unit, and wherein the at least one wall element has a height H, which extends from the filter membrane to the at least one limiting element, and the squeegee unit extends essentially over the height H.
