How to Replace the SmartFlow® Reverse Osmosis Carbon Block Filters
SmartFlow® Reverse Osmosis Carbon Block Filters Replacement
Need a replacement filter?
Water filters are an effective way to provide your household with healthy, great-tasting water. However, waiting too long to replace your filter can cause your system to stop working, and it may even become a source of bacteria or mold. Prevent filter contamination by replacing it on time.
Get filters auto-delivered right when you need them — plus receive 15% off the price of replacement filters, free shipping, and an extended limited warranty on your filtration system. Protect your investment and save money with our no-contract Water for Life® program.
1. Do I need a plumber to install the
system?
Our replacement filters are designed for easy replacements — no plumber required. Please read through the
owner's manual carefully before attempting to replace your filters and/or review the product replacement
video. If you have any questions or need assistance, our technical support representatives at 866-662-6885
can walk you through the installation process.
2. How often do I have to
replace the SmartFlow® Reverse Osmosis cartridges (filters) and the Remineralizer?
Stage 1 (Carbon Block) and Stage 3 (Advanced Carbon Block) filter cartridges should be replaced every 6 months or up to 365 gallons. Stage 2 (SmartFlow® Membrane) should be replaced every 12 months depending on usage and water quality. For homes with higher water usage and/or poorer water quality, you may need to replace your SmartFlow® Membrane sooner than every 12 months. Stage 4 (Remineralizer) should be replaced every 6 months depending on usage and water quality.

3. Does the SmartFlow® Reverse
Osmosis remove fluoride?
Yes. The SmartFlow® Reverse Osmosis is WQA tested and certified to reduce 90% of fluoride from your
drinking water.
4. Does the SmartFlow® Reverse
Osmosis remove arsenic?
Yes. The Aquasana SmartFlow® Reverse Osmosis system is WQA tested and certified to reduce 96% of pentavalent arsenic
from your drinking water. It will not convert trivalent arsenic to pentavalent arsenic.
5. How many gallons of water
does the SmartFlow® Reverse Osmosis holding tank store?
The total volume of the holding tank is 3.2 gallons. Volume is based on your inlet water pressure. So,
the gallons in the tank can vary from 1.4-3.2 gallons at any given time.
6. What is the flow rate of the
Aquasana SmartFlow® Reverse Osmosis?
The SmartFlow® Reverse Osmosis Under Sink Water Filter flows at a rate of 0.8 gpm (gallons per minute).
7. How does reverse osmosis
work?
Reverse osmosis is an incredibly effective method of filtering water, and it works by pushing water through a semi-permeable membrane (a porous block) at a high pressure to remove contaminants. As this pressurized water passes through the membrane, contaminants are left behind and only clean water passes through.
Our reverse osmosis system uses this process, in conjunction with a series of other filters, to increase effectiveness and retain healthy minerals that are often lost during the RO process. Water first passes through our Carbon Block to remove chlorine, taste and odor. Then, the system uses reverse osmosis filtration by pushing water through a semi-permeable SmartFlow® membrane at a high pressure to remove dissolved solids smaller than 1 micron. Next, our Advanced Carbon Block filter uses ion exchange and sub-micron filtration to remove heavy metals, chemicals including herbicides and pesticides, and other contaminants. Finally, our RO system uses remineralization technology to restore healthy minerals like calcium while improving the pH balance and alkalinity of water for exceptional taste.
8. What does TDS mean?
TDS, or Total Dissolved Solids, is the amount of dissolved minerals and metals present in water. TDS meters tell you the concentration of dissolved minerals and metals, but they are not an accurate measurement for contamination. Aquasana products reduce and remove harmful TDS like lead but selectively retain or replace healthy dissolved solids like calcium. Read more about TDS here.
The SmartFlow® Reverse Osmosis comes standard with a 6-month Remineralizer designed to replace healthy minerals lost in the reverse osmosis process.
9. Is reverse osmosis water good
for you?
Using a reverse osmosis water filter is a great way to remove harmful contaminants like lead, mercury,
asbestos, and other impurities that have a range of health concerns. However, it's important to note
that the reverse osmosis process also tends to remove healthy minerals from your water as well. To
ensure you get the maximum health benefits from your water, make sure to use a filter that has a
remineralizer, which restores the healthy minerals lost during reverse osmosis.
