1. Avoid direct sunlight

Direct sunlight or high-temperature electrical appliances may cause algae to grow inside the filter, which is unhealthy to our drinking water.

Avoid direct sunlight on the water purifier, and make sure that there are no high-temperature electrical appliances or other high-temperature items near it.

Household water filters are generally placed indoors and are not exposed to direct sunlight. If the water purifier has to be installed outdoors, it would be better to take sun protection measures. For optimal performance, it is recommended to place the water purifier in a shady corner or build a “shade” for it. When replacing the filter cartridge, shorten the process to avoid problems caused by the growth of algae in the filter element.

2. Rinse the filter cartridge regularly

The summer weather is hot and humid. If the tap water pipes and the water tanks are not cleaned regularly, the bacteria and the odor would grow inside the water purifier. They will cause secondary pollution of the drinking water.

Therefore:

(1) It is recommended to open the faucet every morning and drain the water properly.

(2) If it has not been used for more than 5 days (more than 3 days in summer), turn on the faucet and rinse it for about 10 minutes before using it again.

(3) Drain the water for 10 minutes every 1 to 2 weeks to keep the filter cartridge fresh. It’s recommended to rinse it no more than 14 days in summer.

3. Replace the filter cartridge in time

Filter cartridges are not only used to purify water, but also to protect family members’ health. As consumables, the filter cartridge needs to be replaced regularly. When the filter cartridge is “overloaded”, it must be changed in time to avoid secondary pollution of the drinking water.

When is suitable to replace the filter cartridge?

(1) Have a filter lifetime reminder

If the indicator light is on, please replace it in time.

(2) No filter lifetime reminder

In this case, pepple can determine by the smaller output and the bad taste. In addition, people can observe its lifetime. Whole home cartridge filters can go up to three or six months before replacement, while under sink systems can use the same filter for up to six months.

Filter Tech water filter systems provide a high-performance solution to boost water filter sales. With the lifetime display and auto flushing function, maintenance will be easier.
