Quick Answers

Learn More

Does the Ecofiltro need any maintenance?

Yes, we recommend performing maintenance every 6 months. If you live in an area with very hard water (high lime content), we suggest performing maintenance every 3 months. However, you can choose to perform maintenance more frequently if desired. Learn more about how to perform maintenance HERE.

Is it normal for the filtration rate to be slow at the beginning?

Yes, at the beginning of using your Ecofiltro, you may notice a slow filtration rate. This occurs because the filter unit is new and needs time to undergo the natural process of opening the pores within its walls. The filter operates by gravity; therefore, the more you fill the unit, the more pressure the vessel will receive, accelerating the opening of the pores. With continued use, the pores will open reaching their normal filtration.

How should i dispose of the used filter unit if I choose not to repurpose it?

If you choose not to repurpose the used filter unit, please ensure it is disposed of with organic waste.
