Up to 6 months, subject to usage and the system manual. Treat this only as general product guidance and follow the system manual. Water quality, usage, pressure, and sediment can change actual filter life.
Reduced flow, unfamiliar taste or odor, or the system’s filter indicator may signal that replacement is due sooner than the stated maximum.

- Compare the installed part number with AQ-5300+R / AQ-C3M-R.
- Confirm the cartridge head, locking tabs, and connection style.
- Do not rely on cartridge color, dimensions, or product photography alone.

After installing the replacement
Follow the system manual, restore the water supply slowly, inspect every connection for leaks, and flush the new filter using the manufacturer’s specified volume before drinking the water.
If flow remains low, water tastes unusual, or a leak appears, shut off the supply and recheck the cartridge alignment, seals, tubing, and complete part number. Seek qualified help when needed.
