Quick Answers

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.

How often does the filter unit need to be replaced?

The lifespan of the filter varies depending on factors such as the volume of water filtered, ambient and water temperature, and water hardness due to lime content. Considering these variables and based on various tests, we recommend changing the filter every 2 years.

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 to 100%, reaching their normal filtration.

How do I know that the filter unit needs to be changed?

The filter unit has an average life of two years depending on the hardness of the water. You will notice that the filter unit needs to be changed as it will change the taste of the water.

How do I dispose of the different parts of the Ecofiltro?

The materials that make up Ecofiltro are all 100% recyclable. The container, the lid and the tap are to be placed in the steel bin while the filter unit can be placed in the undifferentiated waste or used as a vase for plants.

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