Expected Filter Replacement Cycle

The expected filter replacement cycle is estimated based on an average household water usage of approximately 10 L per day. Actual replacement intervals may vary depending on water quality and usage conditions.

Recommendations

• Filtration Capacity It is to identify the life span of built-in contaminants removers such as filters. Filtration performance is evaluated based on standardized test conditions, including the reduction of substances such as chloroform.
• Filter Replacement Cycle After a close review of filters, this is carefully estimated period during which a filter is expected to display its proper performance. This is determined based on the amount of tap water filtered for drinking (10L per day for four people). Thus the cycle shortens as the amount used goes up.
