Filter Cartridges
Filter Cartridge Life
Taste and Odor, and Purifying Cartridges: Taste and odor, and purifying cartridges contain activated
c
arbon. When new, open the filtered water faucet and allow fine, carbon particles to purge from the
cartridges. Flush for 10 minutes. It is recommended to replace filter cartridges every six months or
550 gallons of use. There are several variables that determine how long a cartridge will last.
These include:
1. How much water you use, and
2. How much sediment, taste and/or odor, or other unwanted substance, is in the water.
Use the following information as a guide. However, no matter which type of cartridge you are using, you
will know it is time to replace them when you first notice the return of the unwanted sediment, taste
and/or odor in your water, or when the flow diminishes or stops.
