FAQs
How often do I need to replace the filter cartridge?
The filter cartridge has a lifespan of approximately 24 months or 80,000 litres (22,000 gallons), whichever comes first. Regular replacement ensures optimal performance and water quality.
What contaminants does this system remove?
It effectively removes sediments, chlorine, chlorine by-products, chloride, heavy metals, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, herbicides, nitrate, PFOS/PFAS, and phosphate, while retaining beneficial minerals.
Does the system come with its own faucet?
No, this undersink system connects to your existing cold water main line and dispenses purified water through your current kitchen faucet.
Can I install this system myself?
Yes, the system is designed for easy installation with user-friendly instructions and versatile fittings. Basic plumbing knowledge is helpful but not always required.
What is the difference between this filter and others?
This system features a long-life, high-capacity filter that retains essential minerals, offering a balance of purity and health benefits, along with a convenient 3-second twist-and-lock replacement.
What size fittings are included?
The system includes a feed water adapter and a 3/8"–1/2" converter fitting, allowing connection to standard 1/2" or 3/8" cold water lines and taps.
How do I perform the twist-and-lock filter change?
Simply turn the old filter cartridge a quarter turn counter-clockwise to unlock and remove it. Insert the new cartridge and turn it a quarter turn clockwise until it locks firmly into place. This process takes approximately 3 seconds.
Troubleshooting
No water flow or reduced flow
Ensure the cold water supply is turned on. Check for any kinks in the hoses. Verify the filter cartridge is correctly seated and locked. If the issue persists, the filter may be clogged and require replacement.
Leaking connections
Check that all fittings are securely tightened. Ensure thread tape (if used) is applied correctly. Inspect O-rings on the filter housing for damage and ensure they are properly seated before locking the cartridge.
Unpleasant taste or odor in water
This may indicate the filter has reached the end of its lifespan and needs replacement. Ensure the system was properly flushed after installation or filter change.
Filter cartridge difficult to twist-lock
Ensure the O-ring on the cartridge is clean and properly lubricated (use food-grade silicone grease if necessary). Make sure no debris is obstructing the housing seal. Do not force the lock; re-align and try again.
