• Many households are installing water filters
  to assure they have clean drinking and cooking
  water. A popular under sink filtration
  system option for homes is the under sink water
  filter. It takes up space in the cabinet under
  the sink but is still conveniently out of the
  way. Like all filter systems, it will require
  occasional maintenance, and replacing the filter
  is a simple procedure says filter systems

• Gather Your SuppliesYou do not need many
  tools. A filter wrench is recommended by filter
  systems Australia to make removing the canister
  housings easy. The housings can be removed by
  hand or with another tool if a filter wrench is
  not available. Towels or something else absorbent
  is also recommended to wipe up any water that
  drips. New O-rings may be needed, so it is good
  to have those on hand as well. You will also need
  a pressure gauge and an air pump of some sort. A
  bicycle pump will work fine. Of course, you will
  also need your under sink water filter.

• Turn Off the Water SupplyBefore removing any
  parts, turn off any valves that allow water to
  flow. Start with the valve that supplies water to
  the cabinet. If you have a tank, turn off the
  tank valve next. Also turn off any valves on the
  lines or pipe that connects your filter systems
  Australia.Bleed the LinesNext, bleed the
  lines to reduce water pressure and let out as
  much water as you can. The easy way to do this is
  to turn on the faucet that connects to the water
  system and let the water flow out. Turn the
  faucet back off after the water stops flowing.

• Change the Sediment FilterIf you have
  multiple cartridges in your system, the first
  cartridge is the sediment filter. Turn the
  cartridge housing to the left to loosen the
  housing. Remove the housing carefully since there
  will still be some water inside. Remove the
  sediment filter and pour out the remaining water.
  Rinse the housing if there is still sediment at
  the bottom. Wash benchtop water purifier?, if it
  still looks dirty. Inspect the O-ring in the top
  of the housing. Replace it if it is damaged. If
  it seems dirty, clean it following the
  manufacturers instructions. Place the new
  sediment filter inside the housing. Screw the
  housing back onto the bracket. Tighten the
  housing until it is snug, but not so tight that
  the O-ring is over-compressed.

• Change the Carbon FilterNearly all filters
  have carbon filters. If you have one filter on
  your system, it will probably be a carbon filter.
  If you have more, the filters after the first are
  likely to be carbon filters. The method for
  changing the carbon filter is almost the same as
  changing the sediment filter. Follow the same
  instructions until you get to the carbon filter
  removal from filter systems Australia. This time,
  you will need to inspect the filter cartridge.

• The filter should have O-rings at each end of
  the cartridge. Make sure they are not still in
  the housing. If they are, when you place the new
  filter in the housing, there will be too many
  O-rings and the housing and cartridge will not
  fit. This could make your system leak and not
  filter correctly. Take note of the orientation of
  the carbon filter. Some will have a specific up
  and down end depending on the filter system. If
  there is an O-ring in the housing, remove it.
  Inspect the O-ring on the top of the housing like
  before and pour out the water. Remove the
  wrapping from the new carbon filter and place it
  in the housing in the correct orientation.
  Replace the housing and tighten until snug.
