Maintaining Your Drinking Water System
The Kinetico Drinking Water System Plus Deluxe is engineered to take the
guesswork out of quality water. It will tell you when routine maintenance
needs to be performed to keep your drinking water system working properly.
Filter Changes
If you open your tap and don’t get any water, or only get a small stream, it could
mean one of two things: your storage tank is out of water and the drinking
water system is making more, or your MACguard Filter has shut off. Check
your system’s PureMometer to see if the MACguard Filter has shut off.
Periodically checking the PureMometer could alert you of upcoming filter
shutdown before it happens. If the MACguard Filter has not shut off, wait an
hour or two and try to draw water from the faucet again.
How long a MACguard Filter cartridge will last depends on your drinking
water usage. It could last anywhere from a few months to a few years. An
average family of four with average drinking water use can expect the car-
tridge to last approximately nine months to one year. Kinetico recommends
annual cartridge replacements even if your system has not shut off.
When your MACguard Filter does shut off, we recommend you call your local,
authorized Kinetico dealer.They will change your cartridges, completely san-
itize your system, check your water and make sure your system is operating
properly. If you choose to install your new cartridges yourself, follow the
instructions carefully. Never attempt to remove the prefilter or postfilter car-
tridges without first depressurizing the system. Be sure to completely sanitize
your system by following the instructions provided in the “Sanitization
Procedure” section of this owner’s manual to prevent contamination from
human contact.
Shutting Off the System
If you should ever discover a problem with your drinking water system, turn
off the water supply to the system.Then call your local, authorized Kinetico
dealer for service.
