Drinking Water Filter Replacement
A drinking water filter replacement keeps your filtration system working as intended, so you continue to get clean-tasting water without slow flow, leaks, or reduced performance. The service covers removing the old filter, fitting the correct replacement, and checking the system is safe, watertight, and running properly.
More information
What the service covers
Filter changes are not always a simple swap. This service focuses on correct fit, clean installation, and reliable performance.
- Identify the existing filter type and confirm compatible replacements
- Isolate the supply and remove the old cartridge or filter media safely
- Replace seals or housings where required to prevent leaks
- Refit and flush the system to clear air and carbon fines
- Check flow rate, pressure issues, and visible signs of blockage
- Leak testing and final checks before leaving
When to book a filter replacement
This service is a good fit if your water starts tasting different, the flow at the filtered tap drops, or you are unsure when the filter was last changed. It is also useful after moving into a property, after plumbing work, or where hard water causes rapid limescale build-up. Landlords and small premises often book scheduled replacements to keep systems consistent for tenants and staff.
How the appointment works
You will be asked what system you have, where it is located (under-sink, inline, or whole-house), and what issues you have noticed. On site, the existing setup is checked for condition and compatibility before the filter is replaced and the system flushed. You will be told what was fitted, any limitations of the current setup, and whether any parts look close to failure.
Aftercare and ongoing value
You will get practical guidance on change intervals based on local water conditions and your usage, plus advice on early warning signs of blockage or leaks. If the system is due for periodic servicing, you can set a routine schedule so performance stays steady and you avoid emergency call-outs. If you want better taste, higher capacity, or more limescale protection, you can discuss upgrade options separately.
