MAINTENANCE
1. VISUALLY check the sediment cartridge.
a. If it appears dirty, or the production of RO water diminishes, the cartridge
may need to be changed.
b. Order the Pleated Filter Cartridge, 2-3/4” x 9-3/4” 5 micron at
www.skwatermakers.net
2. ESTIMATE gallons used to determine when to change the carbon cartridge.
a. Typical city water supply is approximately 5 gallons per minute or 300
gallons per hour. The carbon cartridge capacity is approximately 5,000
gallons. Change carbon cartridge after every 16 hours of use (5,000
gallons capacity divided by 300 gallons per hour)
b. DO NOT operate the system without a carbon cartridge in place. City
water contains chlorine which can damage the membranes. Carbon
filters remove harmful chlorine.
c. Order the Carbon Block Cartridge at www.skwatermakers.net
3. MEMBRANES
a. Under normal operating conditions, the membranes should last 3-5 years,
depending on frequency of use, storage conditions, water conditions, and
temperature.
b. NEVER let the system freeze. In winter months, store the system in a
heated environment, or remove the membranes and store them sealed in
plastic in a heated environment.
c. SK Watermakers recommends a trained service technician remove or
replace the membranes in the system. If you want to perform this work
yourself, please see the video on the SKWatermakers channel on
YouTube –Changing a Membrane with Darryl.
d. Order membranes by calling SK Watermakers 941-257-2036
