The module's resources may be measured in liters or units. However, the amount specified by the manufacturer could be more precise. It is essential to evaluate your particular situation, including the number of users, the quality of the water, and the frequency of filter usage.

The information in the product's travelogue (the instructions) will be the excellent and most reliable method to ensure you won't be able to find the replacement. After all, there may not be any reliable signs that the module has started to be sad: contrary to popular belief, the filtration process does not always slow down. But the water ceases to differ from the tap "cocktail": a chlorine taste, foreign shades or smells appear, and the worst thing that cannot be seen with the naked eye is carcinogens and mutagens.

Each filter has features for replacing the module—the necessary tips are on the REPAIR SERVICE BRO technical support portal. Fortunately, all models provide independent, straightforward, quick cartridge replacement.

Reverse Osmosis filters

The membrane is changed every quarter to two years. However, its "life" depends on the pre-filtration modules that protect it. They must be changed at least every six months, or if water quality is poor, every three to six months.

The amount of water you use model depends on the filter's model. For example, suppose you are using a reverse osmosis system that is part of the Ro service in Bhopal. In that case, the components will have a longer lifespan because the water drained from them is less into the drain, meaning that the strain on them is much lower. The filter is far cheaper than conventional reverse osmosis systems with a water-air tank. The dolomite mineral naturally present in conditioners (mineralization after membrane filtering) can last about one year.

What happens if you don't replace your water filter on time?

We have a reasonably detailed video on this. It won't be a huge disaster, but it won't be pleasant either: the filter will become useless. It will take up space, but it won't clean the water. At the same time, nothing harmful will flow from the "overfilled" module into the water. But it will flow from the tap, and you need protection.

Polypropylene (in primary filters and pre-filtration modules) becomes clogged with sand, rust, and other large particles and eventually stops letting water through.

Activplaced in time and stopped working: the chlorine not absorbed by the carbon will cause chemical "injury," and the large particles not retained by the polypropylene will cause physical damage. A damaged membrane is a poor protector; all sorts of impurities will start to penetrate the water.

Hollow fiber (a special "additive" to sorption filters) can also become clogged because the material's pores are tiny, only 0.1 microns. If a lot of impurities pass through such a "sieve," then sooner or later, they will cover it with an even layer: bacteria and water will not pass.

Ion exchange resin (used in softeners and softening modules to combat hardness) is the most durable material. It can regenerate with table salt to restore its functionality. But if this is not done in time, you will have to drink hard water, teas with a film, and cloudy broth. Detergents and cosmetics do not foam well in hard water.

When does the entire filter need to be replaced?

All filters have a warranty period specified in the product passport. If the filter breaks within this period, you can safely demand decisive action from the company. If it seems to you that the filter is not coping well with its primary duties, the water is not cleaned well enough, too much of it goes into the drain, or the housing itself is broken, contact RO service near me, and they will definitely help you.
