The replacement intervals are dependent on the degree of water contamination and will typically vary between one and two years. To keep track of the replacement intervals it is advised to scan the NFC chip and let the aquablu App show you when to replace the filters. If suddenly the replacement intervals significantly shorten, it is advised to contact your local dealer.

HOW TO PROPERLY STORE A WORKING MEMBRANE FILTER When the Aquablu unit is not connected to power supply for a longer period of time, the membrane should be taken out and stored properly to avoid contamination and termination of the membrane. No power supply means the system cannot take care of the membrane itself as no automatic back flush can be performed.
