While individual filters should be replaced every three to six months, the entire water filter system may need replacement every three to ten years. Not sure if it’s time to replace your system? Here are some signs that indicate it’s beyond repair:
- Regular filter changes, but the water still tastes off or appears discolored.
- Water tests show bacteria or contaminants.
- Mineral deposits are building up on faucets or sinks.
- The filter system shows visible rust or damage.
If you notice any of these issues, it may be time for a water filter replacement to ensure your water remains clean and safe.
