Water Filter Maintenance: Firstly, all water purification systems need maintenance if you want clean and safe water to drink. Whole house water filters tend to have a longer lifespan than other filters, but some of the other components in your system will need to be replaced periodically. Some tell-tale signs your water filter needs to be changed include bad taste, odor, or coloration in your drinking water. Sometimes, it isn’t your water filter at all. Your tank, depending on the capacity, needs to be changed every 3 or 10 years!
An old water filter can impact water quality. It becomes less effective, it can’t keep all the contaminants out of your water, and an outdated pre-sediment filter may let rust, sediment, and silt particles slip past it. Not only is it unsafe to drink, but these contaminants are tough on pipes, faucets, showerheads, and other fixtures.
The Replacement Schedule for a Whole House Water System
As we stated earlier, the tank needs to be replaced every 3 or 10 years depending on its capacity. A pre-sediment filter needs to be replaced every 3 to 6 months. If your water purification system has a sub-micron-post filter, that needs to be replaced every 9 to 12 months.
We’ve seen cases in and around Springfield, Mo. where people have become sick from contaminated water. One example is of a husband-and-wife team who ended up getting divorced. The wife was the one who handled the water filter maintenance, and when she left the husband and son had no idea that she maintained it regularly. The son ended up falling sick with e coli. That’s when the husband called us, and we started performing regularly scheduled maintenance on their water filtration system.
