What kind of water are you using?  
Plants create their own rooting hormone and instead of changing the water frequently, when the water level is lower just add more water. The key is using purified water. If you try this method you should see more roots faster

i’ve been using bottled distilled water, and a few drops of kelp fertilizer , but i would change the whole water after a few days, maybe i’ll try to let it sit for a few days and just observe in anxiety if any changes happen😅

Yes I lost my monstera albo to rot it was heartbreaking especially after paying a lot for it
