When And How To Replace Your RO Filters?

We need to make sure that the water we are drinking is clean, toxin-free, and not filled with contaminants. Dirty contaminated water can cause health complications and in worse situations, it can also affect your day-to-day life. You need to make sure that your community is well equipped with water plants that help in decontaminating and purifying the water that gets supplied to every household.

A reverse osmosis plant is a sort of equipment that helps decontaminate and purify water on a large scale. Reverse osmosis is the process of treating water molecules with a certain amount of pressure that puts them through a semi-permeable membrane. As and when the water molecules are made to go through the semi-permeable membrane, the toxins present are flushed out and all that remains is healthy drinking water that is safe to be consumed by any household that will receive it.

At Iconic Water, our goal is to contribute to the community by providing services such as reverse osmosis, waste water cleaning, etc. We design and manufacture our reverse osmosis plants in Australia. We are capable of supplying these safe water plants to the entire nation. We wish to ensure the good health and safety of the people and plan on doing the same for future generations!

If you do have a reverse osmosis plant installed, it is important to make sure that you keep changing the RO filter to ensure that the water supply is fit for human consumption. It is advised to change your RO filters at least once in 12 months. This helps sustain the process and kick away any chances of complications that can arise due to a dirty filter. If you turn a blind eye toward your filter’s performance, it can cause some serious damage!

1. Why is there a need to replace the filter and cartridges?

Continuous cleaning can cause the filters to get clogged as they filter out litres of water every single day. Remember that this is not a house purifier, a plant purifies a lot of water that is supplied to numerous houses. Your filter can also turn useless and completely ineffective if you don’t replace it. You will eventually find yourself drinking contaminated water which will come to your knowledge only when something starts going haywire. Some filters are made from such material that lose their effectiveness after a certain amount of time. Hence, it is very important to change your RO filters to ensure smooth sailing water purifying process. Yes, it is possible that different filters may be changed after a different amount of time depending on their material and working hours, but once in a year changing your filter is a safe bet.

2. Why must you get your filters changed by a professional?

It is difficult for people without adequate training and knowledge to try fixing or replacing an RO filter. Why? Because it’s not as easy as just finding out what fits. It depends on the manufacturers of the filter, the purpose of that particular filter, and if the filter is up to the latest standards, or does it still complies with an outdated version. Now, it’s important that you use the right type of filter. You may find something that fits well. But, if it isn’t meant for that plant, things can go South. The filter may fit but also be a little small which will not be noticeable to someone who isn’t a professional. As a result, contaminated water will go through from the sides of the filter and end up getting mixed in the partially clean water which will render the entire process and the purpose of the plant useless.
