Frequently Asked Questions about UV Water Filtration
How often should you replace your filters
Filters need regular replacement every six to twelve months.
You will notice the water flow slowing down or becoming murky and darker in colour.
Pressure gauges are supplied before and after the filters to indicate if they may require replacement.
How often should you replace your UV lamps
UV lamps need to be replaced every 12 months (or after 9000 hours of continued use)
