How to Install & Flush 8” Filteroo® Rain & City Water Gravity Carbon Block Filter Cartridge

  1. Remove the locking nut from the cartridge threaded stem leaving 1 sealing washer over the end of the cartridge threaded stem.
  2. Insert the filter cartridge threaded stem through the hole in the top tank from the inside out.
  3. Then secure by screwing the locking nut onto the threaded stem on the underside of the top tank until tight. Do not over tighten.
  4. Ensure that the tap is in the off position.
  5. Fill the top tank with cold water and allow this water to filter through to the lower tank.
  6. It is recommended to drain the first filtered water to waste as it may contain carbon fines.
  7. Open the tap and allow the water to empty the bottom tank into a bucket or container. You can use this water for your garden or plants.
  8. We recommend flushing at least 12 litres of water through the cartridge using the process in steps 5 - 8.
  9. The filter is now ready for use

  1. Place the sealing washer over the threaded mount.
  2. Place the filter candle mount stem through the hole in the upper section of the housing and secure it with a wing nut. Do not over-tighten
  3. Ensure that the outlet tap is in the off position.
  4. Fill the upper container with cold water and allow this to filter through. Our filter is made of a special ceramic and contains carbon granules; this means black particles may be visible when water filters through for the first time. Discard the first filtered water.
  5. Repeat the process and run at least 1 litre of water to waste per fitted filter, and continue running until the water is clear. Wipe the lower chamber with a clean cloth to remove any dust particles. The filter is now ready for use. 

How To Install The Filteroo® Max Fluoride Removal Gravity Water Filter Cartridge

  1. Remove the plastic wrapping whilst keeping the cartridge clean. (Wash the cartridge outside if required before removing the thread end caps)
  2. Remove the end caps from each end of the cartridge.
  3. Sit the rubber flushing washer over the hole on 1 end of the cartridge. Hold the cartridge and  washer as you press it up against the tap spout to get a good seal. Gently turn on the cold water and allow the water to flow into the cartridge & then out the other end to flush the fine particles out of the cartridge. Flush continuously for 1 minute.
  4. Turn the cartridge around and repeat above. Flush for a further 1 minute & ensure that  the water flows clear. Repeat this process for all the Filteroo® MAX fluoride removal cartridges you intend to install.
  5. Once the cartridge is flushed, lift the top tank off your Filteroo® Steel bottom tank & sit the top tank upside down on the bench top. The Filteroo® MAX Fluoride Removal cartridge screws directly onto the exposed carbon cartridge threaded stem already installed. (Note - Only 1 end of the cartridge has a thread). The cartridge MUST be installed by the threaded end. Screw on the cartridge gently ensuring you do not cross the thread. Tighten until firm. Do not over tighten.
  6. Once the Filteroo® MAX fluoride removal cartridges have been installed, place the top tank back onto the bottom tank. The fluoride cartridges hang down inside the bottom tank. Now fill the top tank with water and allow that water to filter down through both the Filteroo® carbon cartridge & the Filteroo® MAX fluoride removal cartridges.
  7. Once the top tank water has emptied into the bottom tank. Discharge that water to waste or onto the garden.
  8. Then rinse the mineral pad under flowing water for a few seconds to rinse & remove any fine particles. Place the mineral pad onto the base of the bottom tank and your water filter is now ready to be refilled & used.
