To ensure maximum efficiency of the Ecosoft reverse osmosis system, regular replacement of filter elements is required. Proper maintenance guarantees high water quality and extends the service life of your system.
Cartridge replacement schedule:
- Ecosoft PP melt-blown sediment filter, 4.5″ × 20″, 5 µm – replace every 4 months, or if the pressure drop reaches 0.5 bar
- Membrane element – replace or clean every 6 months if productivity decreases by more than 15–20%, water quality worsens by 15–20%, or pressure drop increases by 15–20%
You can replace cartridges and membrane elements yourself, but for best results we recommend contacting an authorized service center.
If you decide to carry out the replacement yourself, follow the instructions below:
⚠️ Use sterile rubber gloves when handling membrane elements
⚠️ If high microbiological purity is required, disinfect the reverse osmosis system and the permeate tank before installing the membrane
Membrane holder cap
1 – Screws, 2 – Locking half-rings, 3 – End cap, 4 – Sealing ring, 5 – Sealing ring for the end cap.
Remove the membrane element(s) from the factory packaging. To replace the old element with a new one, disconnect the pipelines and remove the membrane holder(s) from the frame.
⚠️ Pay special attention to the sealing ring of the end cap (5). If the seal is missing, permeate and concentrate streams may mix.
After removing the end cap, install the membrane element in the direction of the arrow marked on the membrane holder (from the inlet water side). The membrane element must be inserted into the holder with its sealing ring aligned with the inlet connection of the holder head.
After installation, secure the holder head with screws and locking elements to the holder body, then reconnect the pipelines for feed water, concentrate discharge, and permeate outlet on the membrane holder. Fix the membrane holder to the reverse osmosis system frame.
During the first system startup, the initial portion of permeate must be discharged to the sewer, with a minimum discharge time of 15 minutes.
💡 When installing the membrane, pay attention to the direction of the arrow on the membrane holder.
💡 If necessary, use glycerin as a lubricant.
Important Maintenance Guidelines
- Designed for use with municipally treated tap water only.
- Replace the filter cartridges according to the recommended maintenance schedule to ensure optimal filtration performance and water quality.
- If the system will not be used for an extended period, turn off the water supply to help protect the reverse osmosis system.
- If the filter has been unused for a prolonged period, replace all filter cartridges before returning the system to service to ensure safe, hygienic, and high-quality drinking water.
- Using genuine replacement filters helps maintain the system's performance, extends its service life, and preserves the manufacturer's recommended filtration standards.
Regular maintenance and timely cartridge replacement will keep your system delivering clean, safe, mineral-balanced drinking water for your home.
Inlet Water Quality
- Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
- High levels of sediments, pathogens, chemicals, water hardness may reduce the performance of the filters.
