A water filtration system is a great investment for any South Auckland home, providing clean, safe, and great-tasting water for your whānau. To make sure your system keeps performing at its best, regular maintenance is key. Proper upkeep not only ensures high water quality but also extends the life of your filtration system.
1. Change Filters Regularly
The most important step in maintaining your water filtration system is replacing the filters on schedule. Over time, filters can become clogged with sediment, chlorine, and other impurities, reducing water flow and efficiency. Check your system’s manual for recommended filter replacement intervals, and consider setting reminders to help you remember.
2. Clean Your System Components
Regular cleaning of filter housings, cartridges, and other system parts helps prevent build-up and bacterial growth. Use a mild, non-toxic cleaner and follow the manufacturer’s instructions to avoid damaging your filtration unit.
3. Monitor Water Pressure
A sudden drop in water pressure can indicate a clogged filter or other issues in your system. Keeping an eye on your home’s water pressure helps you catch problems early before they affect performance.
4. Check for Leaks and Wear
Inspect your system regularly for leaks, loose fittings, or signs of wear. Even a small leak can reduce efficiency and waste water. Tighten fittings as needed and replace worn parts promptly.
5. Schedule Professional Servicing
While basic maintenance can be done at home, having a professional check your water filtration system annually ensures it remains in top condition.
