The most important part of maintaining your WaterChef Shower Filtration System
is replacing the Filter Cartridge on a regular service interval. To ensure your System
continues to perform as stated in the Performance Data Sheet,
the Filter Cartridge
should be replaced upon the first occurrence of the following:
- Every six months*
- When you notice an odor recurrence
- When the 10,000 gallon rated capacity of the Filter Cartridge has been reached
1. Towel dry Filter Base and Filter Housing. Hold
Filter Housing securely in one hand while
turning the Filter Base counter-clockwise with
the other. Once loose, pull Filter Base down
and away.
(fig. G)
2. Remove spent Filter Cartridge from Filter
Base and discard with regular refuse.
(fig. H)
3. Remove protective wrap from new Filter
Cartridge and insert into Filter Base. While
holding Filter Base securely, insert Cartridge into
Filter Housing and thread Filter Base clockwise
until tight. Do NOT over-tighten.

4. Direct Shower Wand into drain and turn
water “ON”. Allow System to FLUSH for
at least 5 minutes or until water runs clear.
(fig. J)
This will remove any fine, black carbon
particles left over from the manufacturing
process, expel trapped air and condition the
Cartridge for normal use. (This water may
be used to water plants.)
RECOMMENDATION
For best performance replace Cartridge every six months.*
