Replacement of 1st to 3rd-Stage Filter Element
If the flow or quality reduction is found, it should be replaced every 6 months or earlier. The
frequency of replacement depends on your water consumption and the quality of source
water. In order to protect the reverse osmosis membrane from chlorine and other harmful
contaminants, it is necessary to replace the filter element according to its service life.
How to Replace 1st to 3rd-Stage Filter Elements:
Please be careful when replacing the filters. To help reduce the water pressure, it is
recommended to turn off the main water supply and close the RO fresh water inlet valve.
When both valves are off, open the RO faucet to release any pressure. You will need your
filter housing wrench for this filter removal process.
1. Close the sink main water inlet valve, the RO water inlet valve and the RO fresh water
inlet valve on the RO fresh water storage tank.
2. Please open the RO water faucet to reduce the system pressure, and place a towel under
the machine. It is a good idea to have a bucket handy to dump the water in the filter
housing.
Note: When you remove the water filter housing, water will be present in the
filter housing. Carefully tip the filter housing into your bucket to empty the water.
3. If the unit is installed under the sink with enough space or hung on the wall, the filter
housing may be directly unscrewed to replace the filter element. Or, you will need to remove
the unit and replace the filter element. Be careful for all the tubing connections when
removing the machine.
4. Unscrew the housing of the filter element counterclockwise with the filter housing wrench.
Note: For more information on how to install the filters, Refer to Step 4 – Install
Filters.
Replacement of the 4th Reverse Osmosis Filter Element
Generally, the RO membrane is replaced every 2-3 years, and the TDS value is checked at
least once a month to monitor the performance of the system. Under normal circumstances,
the desalination rate of the unit will be greater than 90%.
