Frequently asked questions

recommended you push the new filter in with a little bit of force, but not too
hard. Then turn it clockwise.
QDo Ineed to flush the filter after installation
A After installation, it is highly recommended you run the water tor a few
minutes before using it. Water filters are made from advanced coconut carbon
block, so there are some carbon fines in the filiter. Flushing removes the
carbon fines to produce clean water
QMust the filter be changed every6 month?
A: Yes, you must replace the filter every six months or sooner if water flow
is reduced or if there is heavy sediment rust present. Over-used filters will
degrade the filtration performance.
