Filteroo Max Fluoride Removal Gravity Water Filter Cartridges (Set of 2)

1. Remove the plastic wrapping whilst keeping the cartridge clean. (Wash the cartridge outside if required before removing the thread end caps)
2. Remove the end caps from each end of the cartridge.
3. Sit the rubber flushing washer over the hole on 1 end of the cartridge. Hold the cartridge and washer as you press it up against the tap spout to get a good seal. Gently turn on the cold water and allow the water to flow into the cartridge & then out the other end to flush the fine particles out of the cartridge. Flush continuously for 1 minute.
4. Turn the cartridge around and repeat above. Flush for a further 1 minute & ensure that the water flows clear. Repeat this process for all the Filteroo® MAX fluoride removal cartridges you intend to install.
5. Once the cartridge is flushed, lift the top tank off your Filteroo® Steel bottom tank & sit the top tank upside down on the bench top. The Filteroo® MAX Fluoride Removal cartridge screws directly onto the exposed carbon cartridge threaded stem already installed. (Note – Only 1 end of the cartridge has a thread). The cartridge MUST be installed by the threaded end. Screw on the cartridge gently ensuring you do not cross the thread. Tighten until firm. Do not over tighten.
6. Once the Filteroo® MAX fluoride removal cartridges have been installed, place the top tank back onto the bottom tank. The fluoride cartridges hang down inside the bottom tank. Now fill the top tank with water and allow that water to filter down through both the Filteroo® carbon cartridge & the Filteroo® MAX fluoride removal cartridges.
7. Once the top tank water has emptied into the bottom tank. Discharge that water to waste or onto the garden.
8. Then rinse the mineral pad under flowing water for a few seconds to rinse & remove any fine particles. Place the mineral pad onto the base of the bottom tank and your water filter is now ready to be refilled & used.

Lifespan

A single Filteroo® MAX fluoride removal cartridge is effective for a span of 2000 liters. If you’ve equipped your Filteroo® Steel gravity water filter with two cartridges, you’ll have a total capacity of 4000 liters. With two cartridges, you can enjoy over 10 liters of treated water daily, all year round. Our recommendation is to replace each cartridge either after it has processed 2000 liters or at least once every 12 months, depending on which milestone comes first.

Maintenance

If your water flow slows down, or when scrubbing or backwashing your Filteroo® rain & city water gravity carbon block cartridges, you can use the flushing washer supplied & backwash the Filteroo® MAX fluoride removal cartridges also to keep the flow rate the best it can be.
