Soft water free from iron is idea for long membrane life.  Hardness, iron, chlorine and infrequently 
changed filter cartridges 

are the membrane’s greatest enemies.  UF membrane life is significantly 

reduced if local water authorities inject a polyphosphate additive to municipal water to inhibit water 
main corrosion. 
 
Filter  cartridges  may  be  changed  with  the  saddle  valve  ON.    However,  a  small  amount  of  water 
may seep from the cartridge socket momentarily upon removal.  To avoid this leakage, simply turn 
the saddle valve OFF when changing cartridges. 
 

1.  Close  the  cold  water  supply  valve.    On  RO 

systems,  close  the  tank  valve.    Open  the  faucet 
until  the  flow  of  water  stops,  and  then  close.  
Grasp  the  cartridge  to  be  removed,  swing  it 
outwards  and  twist  ¼  turn  to  the  LEFT.    The 
cartridge  will  disengage  and  can  be  easily 
removed  by  pulling  it  out  of  the  socket.    Repeat 
for each cartridge to be changed.   

 
2.  Wash  hands  thoroughly.    Remove  the  replacement  cartridge  from  its  box  and  its  sani-

sealed  protective  sleeve.  Remove  the  protective  cap.    Make  sure  the  correct  cartridge  is 
installed  in  its  socket  according  to  its  colour.  Locate  the  alignment  tab  on  the  top  of  the 
cartridge (there are two at 180 degrees from each other) and align with the center front of 
the cartridge socket.  Push cartridge straight up into the socket, while turning ¼ turn to the 
RIGHT.  The cartridge will engage and lock into place.  See figure 5.

3.  Turn the cold water supply valve ON.  Open the faucet and allow the system to run for two 

minutes to flush.  For RO systems, drain the storage tank and allow to refill.  You may now 
resume normal use of the system.
