💧 Estimated Time: 20 min 💧 Difficulty: Easy 💧 Tools Needed: None
Supplies Needed
- Replacement filters
- Towel
- Bucket
- Filter flushing kit (included)
- Marker to date filters
Helpful Tips
- Only disconnect elbow fittings from the filter ports. Leave the tubing attached to the elbows (unless you are replacing fittings).
- Keep it simple. Instead of removing all of the filters at once, replace one filter at a time. This will allow you to easily keep track of filter orientation.
- Install new filters with the arrows pointing in the same direction as the old filters • Fittings are color-coded (Orange = Inlet; Blue = Outlet)
- You can leave the water on at the filter faucet throughout the filter changing and flushing process. You will only be turning water on and off at the shut-off valve where water enters the filtration system.
