Typical replacement interval: Every 6–12 months, depending on water quality, sediment levels, and water usage.
Replace sooner if:
Water flow decreases noticeably.
Pressure drop increases across the filter.
The cartridge becomes heavily clogged or discoloured.
Sediment begins passing through the filtration system.
Filtration performance declines.
Pleated polypropylene media may be rinsed and reused in some non-potable applications. Replace the cartridge once the media is damaged, permanently blocked, or no longer provides effective sediment reduction.
Best Used With
A 20 micron sediment pre-filter for heavy sediment applications to extend cartridge life.
Activated carbon filters for chlorine, taste, and odour reduction.
Multi-stage filtration systems for improved water quality and protection of downstream equipment.
Not Suitable For
Chlorine, taste, or odour reduction.
Bacteria or virus removal.
Water softening or hardness reduction.
Dissolved chemical contaminant removal.
Heavy sediment loads without suitable pre-filtration.
