Filter Replacement
Not changing cartridges when required may cause the water to become biologically unsafe.
Thoroughly flush the water through if the filter tap has not been used for more than 12 hours.
For safe operation, the filter cartridge should be replaced at least every 6-12 months, or earlier if
you notice a persistent reduction in water pressure from the Filter Tap, or an unpleasant taste or
odour in the water.
Use only a Zip filter cartridge to match that of your Filter Tap. Replacement cartridges can be
obtained through plumbing suppliers or directly from Zip.
Replacing a Zip Filtration cartridge is as easy as 1-2-3.
1.
To remove the filter, shut off the service valve and Turn the cartridge a quarter turn to the
left until it stops, then ease the cartridge down, away from the filter head.
2.
To replace, remove all packaging from the new filter. Push the cartridge up into the filter
head and turn the cartridge a quarter turn to the right until it stops.
3.
Open the service valve and purge the filter system by flipping the Filter Tap lever open (on)
for five minutes until the water runs clear.
