How to Maintain & Replace Your CTO Water Filter for Maximum Performance

CTO (Chlorine, Taste, and Odor) water filters are designed to deliver optimal drinking water quality. Over time, though, every filter requires upkeep to sustain peak efficiency. Below is a quick guide on how to maintain and replace your CTO cartridge, ensuring the best water purification results from Shri G Brothers.

1. Recognize the Signs of Filter Saturation

Watch for these indicators that your filter may need replacing:

  • Lower Water Pressure
  • Continuing Chlorine Smell or Taste
  • Extended Filter Use Past Recommended Lifespan

When it’s time for a swap, explore our selection of CTO 10-inch cartridges, 20-inch variants, and more in our shop.

2. Schedule Regular Cartridge Inspections

A quick monthly check can help you catch potential issues before they become serious. Inspect your 10-inch jumbo or 20-inch jumbo CTO filter for visible buildup or changes in color, and read our blog for more tips.

3. Follow Manufacturer Guidelines

Each carbon block filter will have recommended usage timelines. Shri G Brothers provides clear guidelines in product listings:

Adhering to these ensures consistent performance.

4. Consider a Sediment Pre-Filter

Where water sources contain heavy sediment, installing a pre-filter can extend the life of your CTO cartridge. For more on filtration systems, see our About Us page.

5. Proper Replacement Process

  • Shut Off Water Supply: Prevent unwanted leaks or flooding.
  • Depressurize the System: Open a faucet to release excess water.
  • Remove Old Filter & Clean Housing: Wipe away any accumulated debris.
  • Install New Cartridge: Fit your jumbo cartridge or standard version carefully.
