With the leak-free design, filters could be replaced directly without cutting off power and water. No tool is required.

NOTE: The CF filter is relatively short. When removing the filter, it is recommended to hold the filter with one hand, while rotating and removing the filter with the other hand, in order to prevent the filter from falling out of the system. -

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Does the filter have to be replaced every 12 months?
– A: Yes. The filter must be replaced regularly. Otherwise, the water flow rate and water quality may be negatively affected. In addition, the life of the filter depends on both the filtration capacity and usage time. As long as one of the factors reaches the limit, the indicator will notify you to replace the filter. If you consume a large amount of water daily, you may need to replace the filter within 12 months.
Q: What will happen if I do not change my filter when the filter life indicator light turns red?
– A: Excessive use of the filter will reduce the filtration performance, causing contaminants to leak back into the water, which will affect your health. If the filter life indicator flashes or the faucet indicator turns red, it is recommended that you replace the filter immediately.
Q: Why is the filter life indicator still red after the filter has been changed?
– A: You may have forgotten to reset the filter life indicator. Please reset it again: Press and hold the filter life indicator for 5 seconds until the system beeps and the blue light stays on.
