Several variables determine how long the
cartridge will last in your Heavy Duty

levels of sediment or other undesirable
substances in your water.
the amount of water you use.
the filter location (filtering all or part of
household water).
Filter Cartridge Replacement
You should change your filter when the water flow is noticeably reduced or at least every three months.

from an upstream valve.

filter. Wash the filter canister with mild soap

is lightly lubricated and completely seated in
the groove. It is recommended that you
replace the O-ring if it is damaged.
Place a new filter cartridge into the canister

making sure it is centered and completely
seated on the bottom seal.
Reinstall the filter canister to the unit. Hand
