SERVICING THE WATER PURIFIER
The
flow rate of the ceramic filter can be easily renewed by simply brushing
its outer surface with a plastic brush or soft scouring pad under running
water. As the top layer of ceramic and the contaminants are brushed off
and flushed away, a new layer becomes available. With the Sterasyl candle
this process can be repeated over and over before the ceramic material
is exhausted. Supersterasyl, Ultracarb and Supercarb candles should be
changed every 6-9 months as their carbon media will get exhausted sooner
than the ceramic.
If filter has not been used for period of two days or longer the first 2 qt./litres should be wasted and let fresh water supply into the filter.
- Carefully remove candle from the unit and handle it as any fragile ceramic.
- Using a plastic brush or soft scouring pad (3M Scotch-Bite® or similar), scrub the filter under running water or in a bowl of water. Always brush away from threaded mount, taking care not to contaminate the mount. Never use soap, detergents nor steel wool.
- Be sure that sealing washer is properly seated before reinstalling it.
If you accidentally drop the candle and did not brake to ensure the integrity do the following test.
- Submerge it into water while holding a finger over the outlet to keep the air inside.
- If there is a crack the trapped air would exit through it and you would see bubbles rising from the ceramic.
- When not using for long period of time remove, air dried for at least 24 hours and store candle in dry place.
Suggestions: Wear rubber gloves when cleaning. Cover the threaded mount with plastic and a rubber band or the candle O ring.
