Water filters can improve the taste of your tap water, but they do need to be changed every six months to work properly. These instructions will work to replace any Franke Triflow cartridge and may work for some other brands as well.
1. Buy the replacement cartridge from the manufacturer or any of the retailers you can find on the internet. Use the serial number on your current cartridge to order the correct part.
2. Look under the sink and locate the white cylinder shaped casing which contains the water filter cartridge. Shut off the water valve which leads to this filter.
3. Remove the remaining water in the filter hoses by turning your filtered water on as you normally do above the sink. If you completed step 2 correctly , the water should stop flowing within a few seconds.
4. Place a bowl or bucket under the water filter to catch the water which will spill out when you remove the cartridge casing.
5. Unscrew the white plastic cartridge casing located under the sink.
