One of the bigger problems we humans are facing now is water resources! Everyone knows that the distribution of freshwater resources is relatively small, coupled with people’s irrational use, the freshwater resources are facing a shortage. question. I don’t know if you have discovered that without the water we drink in our daily lives, the water quality is very poor. In order to alleviate this situation, people have developed water purifiers. I believe many people know this kind of water purification equipment! Do you know how to change the filter element of a water purifier? Next, the editor will give you a brief introduction!
How to change the filter element of a water purifier? Detailed method introduction
How to judge whether to replace the filter element of a household water purifier
1. The water flow rate is very small and cannot meet normal needs (indicating that the filter element is clogged and the filter element should be cleaned to restore normal flow ), the flow rate after cleaning is still very small and cannot meet the needs;
2. The taste of the outlet water has decreased and is close to that of tap water, that is, the chlorine smell of tap water cannot be removed, indicating that the activated carbon filter element has been saturated with adsorption and the activated carbon has failed;
3. The softening function cannot be restored after the softening element is regenerated or the softening effect does not meet the requirements;
4. The filter element has been used for two years.
Household water purifier filter element life
The filter element replacement cycle of a household water purifier is determined based on the quality of the filter element, the quality of the filtered water, and the amount of filtered water. Usually users will ask how long the filter element can be used, or how much water the filter element can filter. This is asking about the life of the filter element. Using how much time or how much water to express the life of the filter element is a popular expression method, but it is not a scientific expression method. Both expressions are extremely inaccurate. The scientific expression method should refer to the number of pollutants treated by the filter element.
Once the filter element starts to be used, the filter element's ability to process pollutants begins to decrease, until finally the ability to treat pollutants disappears, that is, the filter element life is over. The use process of the filter element is a process of decreasing the ability to handle pollutants. It can also be said to be a consumption process of the filter element. It is just like using a dry battery. There is no warranty.
Everything has a shelf life once it is opened, and it has a shelf life even if it is not opened. Once the filter element is used, its ability to deal with pollutants will decrease. Therefore, we need to regularly replace the filter element according to our own usage, which is also an explanation for our health. So how to replace the water purifier filter element? Experts from Comfort 100 Network said that there are many types of water purifier filter elements. Users must first look at what they use in their homes. Which kind of water purifier depends on what filter element is used in this water purifier? Different water purifiers have different filter element replacement methods. Here are some common ways to replace the filter elements of household water purifiers.
How to replace the pre-filter element
When replacing the pre-filter element, first close the water inlet three-way ball valve and pull out the two hoses at both ends of the pre-filter bottle. and drain the water in the front transparent bottle, then unscrew the white quick connector at the water outlet of the pre-filter (marked "OUT"), unscrew the front transparent bottle, take out the old filter element, and clean it Insert a new filter element of the same specification into the inside of the filter bottle and the filter bottle cap, screw on the black cap (to avoid displacing the "O" rubber ring), then use an adjustable wrench to tighten the white quick connector, and finally tighten the white soft Insert the tubes into the water inlet (marked "IN") and outlet (marked "OUT") of the pre-filter respectively, so that the replacement of the filter element of the pre-filter is completed.
The steps to replace the filter element of the water purifier are as follows:
1. Close the water inlet ball valve on the tee, open the water purifier faucet to drain the remaining water in the machine;
2. Hold the main filter element and turn it laterally (inward) about 90 degrees, and take out the filter element downwards;
3. Open the new filter element package, take off the filter cap, align the machine head vertically and insert it upwards , turn it laterally (outward) about 90° to fasten it, and gently shake the main core to ensure that it is properly positioned to prevent water leakage;
4. Open the water inlet ball valve. At this time, the clean water faucet is not closed. After a few seconds, Discharge the water and let it drain for 10 minutes. First, the filter element is activated to ensure the filtration function and extend the service life. Second, a small amount of activated carbon powder may be flushed out, causing dark-colored water to drain out;
5. Observation Check whether the main core is leaking. After 10 minutes, turn off the clean water faucet and the installation is completed.
How to replace the pure water machine filter element
Tool preparation: Qinyuan pure water machine filter element replacement requires the original filter element, equipped with small tools, mops and other tools and raw materials.
1. First, turn off the power to ensure safety. Then use a small tool to remove the filter cartridge. Note that there must be water in the water dispenser, so prepare a mop.
2. Pay attention to details. After removing it, pay attention to a small gasket, which is usually black. Take out the old filter element and put in the new one. There is also a transparent gasket on the filter element. Don't remove it. If not, the effect will be much reduced. Then place the one with the gasket on the water outlet. Before installing the filter element, rinse the new filter element with clean water and use a small tool to install the filter element barrel in place. Finally, open the water inlet, turn on the power, and let the water run for one to two minutes to check if there is any water leakage. If not, the pure water machine filter element is installed.
3. Special matters: The water storage tank (heating tank) and inner tank of Qinyuan pure water machine need to be cleaned every three months. Clean them with a clean rag without oil stains, and then rinse with clean water. 3 times, and then check to see if there are any water droplets inside the Qinyuan pure water machine (to avoid short circuiting the circuit due to water droplets).
How to replace the three-stage pre-filter element of the pure water machine
When replacing the pre-three-stage filter element, first close the electroplating ball valve and the pressure barrel ball valve, open the gooseneck faucet, and Drain the residual water in the pipe. After the water no longer flows out, use a filter case wrench to open the filter case containing the filter element. Take out the old filter element, install a new filter element of the same specification, and remove the black "O" shape above the filter case. ring, apply lubricant such as Vaseline, then put the "O" ring into the groove in the filter housing, tighten the filter housing vertically, try to avoid displacing the "O" ring, and finally open it Electroplated ball valves and pressure barrel ball valves.
How to replace the RO reverse osmosis membrane of the pure water machine
When replacing the RO reverse osmosis membrane of the pure water machine, first close the electroplating ball valve, wait ten minutes and then unscrew the right side of the membrane housing. Pull out the water pipe from the square nut joint, then close the pressure barrel ball valve, unscrew the nut joint above it, and guide the water pipe into an empty bucket or washing sink. Hold the reverse osmosis membrane tube tightly with your left hand, and then use pliers Clamp the old reverse osmosis membrane and pull it out of the membrane shell. Insert the newly opened reverse osmosis membrane into the reverse osmosis membrane tube until one end of the two small black "O" rings reaches the bottom of the membrane case, and then tighten the membrane case cover. Plug in the water pipe and tighten the joint nut. Then open the electroplating ball valve and let the machine run for more than two hours. After the system enters the normal water production state, connect the water pipe to the pressure barrel ball valve and open the pressure barrel ball valve.
