Product Information
Full details
The Reliapart Anti-Limescale Cartridge Filter is designed specifically for owners of Russell Hobbs Steam Power steam generator irons who want to maintain optimal performance and extend the life of their appliance. It works by filtering impurities from tap water to prevent mineral buildup in the internal boiler, ensuring consistent steam output and protecting your fabrics from limescale stains. While it provides essential protection for your iron, it is a consumable component that requires regular replacement to remain effective.

FAQs
How often should I replace the cartridge?
Frequency depends on your local water hardness and how often you iron, but it is generally recommended to replace it as soon as the iron's indicator light triggers or when steam performance drops.
Can I use this with other iron brands?
No, this cartridge is designed specifically for Russell Hobbs Steam Power steam generator irons.
Do I need to soak the cartridge before use?
Check the specific instructions included with your iron model, though most setups simply require direct insertion.
Will this filter help if I already have limescale buildup?
The filter prevents new buildup but will not remove existing heavy limescale deposits inside an iron. You should descale your iron before installing a new filter if it is already affected.
What should I do with the old cartridge?
Once depleted, the cartridge can typically be disposed of with your household waste, but check local recycling guidelines for composite plastic filters.
Troubleshooting
Steam output feels weak
Check if the cartridge is seated correctly or if it has reached its capacity and needs a replacement.
White particles appearing on clothes
This is a sign of limescale accumulation; replace your current cartridge immediately.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This cartridge is specifically engineered to fit Russell Hobbs Steam Power series steam generator irons. Always verify your specific model number against the manufacturer requirements before installation.
Setup Instructions:
- Ensure the iron is turned off, unplugged, and completely cooled down.
- Locate the cartridge housing on your steam generator station.
- Carefully remove the old, depleted cartridge.
- Insert the new Reliapart cartridge into the designated slot, ensuring it is properly seated and locked into position.
- Reassemble the housing and proceed with your ironing session.
Care Tips: To maximize the utility of your filter, avoid leaving stagnant water in the tank for extended periods. Even with a filter installed, it is good practice to occasionally rinse your water tank to remove any surface-level sediment that may settle at the bottom.
