    If its like most filters out there I've seen, the cord is typically permanently attached to the housing so you'll probably have to DIY. That would involve disassembling the housing to get at the wiring connection and replacing it with a new piece of wire and pluf that you buy at home depot. That would be the proper way. Might not be the easiest thing if the filter doesn't come apart buy just removing screws. Taking the housing apart is probably the hardest part. Once you get it apart, the rest is pretty easy.

    You can also cut the cord where it chewed and put a plug to that. You just end up with a short cord. I usually plug it to a power bar inside my cabinet any way. The long cord create a big mess.

    Mmmm. May be I should cut them all short

    If you want to drive here I can fix it for you, it's a 10 minute job unless your smart rabbit chewed it right to the motor housing.
