How Often Should You Replace Your Water Filter?

Having a water filtration system is a great option for homes, offices, restaurants, hotels and more.

How Often Should You Replace Your Water Filter?

Not only are there health benefits, it is also cost-effective in the long run. However, to keep your water filtration system running smoothly for years to come, it must be properly cleaned and maintained once in a while.

First off, look into the product manual for when your filters and cartridges need replacement or cleaning. This will depend on factors such as overall water quality, frequency of use, type and model of appliance, type and capacity of the filters, and so on.

On average, appliances like water dispensers and water coolers require servicing or replacement of parts every six months. You should never leave a filter unchanged for one year or longer to ensure optimal performance and avoid impurity buildup and machine damage. On the other hand, for hotel or restaurant establishments where water is consumed very heavily, or where the water has a high hardness or large amounts of sediments, the filter may need to be changed more frequently.

Replacing or cleaning filter cartridges takes no time or effort at all. If you wish to do it yourself, all you have to do is switch off your water supply, twist and pull off the used cartridge, replace it with a new one, then switch back on the water supply! No fuss and no mess. Some providers of water dispensers and coolers also offer maintenance services to help you check on the equipment and replace old filters on schedule.
