Replacing and maintaining your sediment filter regularly is key to ensuring optimal water quality and system performance. But how do you know when it’s time for a replacement or some maintenance? Let’s break it down.
Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Sediment Filter
-
Monitor Water Quality Cloudy or discolored water is a clear sign that your sediment filter may need replacing. If your water smells or tastes off, it’s time to check the filter.
-
Keep an Eye on Water Pressure A noticeable drop in water pressure often indicates that the filter is clogged with sediment and needs to be replaced.
-
Follow Manufacturer’s Guidelines Most sediment filters, like the RiverSoft ASP-20’s spun cartridge, are designed to last 3-6 months. However, the exact lifespan depends on your water quality and usage.
-
Inspect the Filter Regularly Check the filter periodically for visible signs of wear or clogging. If the cartridge appears dirty or damaged, it’s time for a replacement.
How to Maintain Your Sediment Filter
Proper maintenance ensures your sediment filter performs efficiently and lasts longer. Follow these simple steps to keep your filter in top condition:
-
Regularly inspect the filter housing. Check the filter housing for cracks, leaks, or signs of wear. Ensure all connections are secure and free of leaks.

Clean the housing. Every time you replace the filter cartridge, clean the housing with a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly to remove any sediment buildup.

Replace the cartridge on schedule. Stick to the recommended replacement schedule (every 3-6 months) to maintain optimal filtration. Always use high-quality cartridges, like those designed for the RiverSoft ASP-20.
