It is recommended to replace the filter cartridge every six months of use. There are several variables that determine
how long a filter 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 this 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.
