HOW TO REPLACE REVERSE OSMOSIS FILTERS
Reverse Osmosis (RO) filters should be replaced every 6 to 9 months.  The cost of the filters can be significant, but add to that the cost to hire some one to replace them for you, it can quickly add up to a significant expense.

In this video, DIY on the House shows you how to change the RO filters on Watts Premier Filter Replacement, which is a quick release and quarter turn RO System.  The replacement is a quick and easy process and should not intimidate you from trying this replacement yourself.

1. Turn on RO Faucet until water runs clear
2. If there is a valve on the tank, open the valve and let the water run until it becomes a trickle
3.Shut off the RO faucet and allow the system to recharge for 2 to 3 hours
4. After 2 - 3 hours, turn on the RO faucet and drain the system to flush out any contaminates

Thanks for explaining this properly I’ve watched three different videos and was not understanding the last step to make sure it’s getting done correctly so thanks

Once you’ve replaced the filters, do not turn the main water back on. Turn on your sink faucet and then the RO tank storage valve to let it empty. Then close both valves once sink faucet comes to a slow drip. Then open your main water valve.

Thank you for this video, it was helpful

how bad is it if I did not turn the water off or close the tank valve before replacing my filters? I have a very similar setup to yours. Let the water run for a while after replacing them to drain the system, but after all that my drain on the RO side of the sounds like there is water running down it when the faucet is not turned on.

Hi. I have a watts system like the one you are showing here, about 10 yrs old. Since I changed the cartridges last week, the system gurgles every time I dispense any amount of water, even just a little for a quick drink. Don't recall it doing that before the last cartridge change. What did I do?

[Anonomush_oranges]

My faucet has an LED indicator that is flashing red. How do I reset that? Someone on Amazon said to remove the coin battery but I do not see how to do that.

You need to mention the pressurizing the tank portion too

The green one is a 5 year RO membrane, the others are 6 months

Thanks for the vid. I have a quarter turn 4 stage canister RO system and I'm in the process of ordering new canisters, minus membrane. Question: What is the best way to sanitize the tank? Bleach into tank line? Bleach into sediment canister itself? Sanitize after or before new canister install? Thanks again.

How do I snap back the cartridge with water in it?. I guess the water makes it hard to snap it back in

[kirkmcgill]

I can't find the filters that replace the ones I have. They all don't have the nipple extending up past the flush part

[timshel]

I recently moved into a home that has the RO system. No instructions.
Do I change all 4 cartridges at the same time and how often? One a year? Could I change just the red and yellow the first year then all 4 the second year to save money?

[loiderer]

This is amazing and thorough. Thanks! How often do you change the cartridges

[gerischaffer]

Once I turned the water back on, water is just draining out the drain line. Any advice?

[bcdoll]

Does it make a huge difference on TDS?

[danlevine]

What's the purpose for the drain line to the faucet?

[WestlandMark]

I wish you would have shown how to empty the storage tank. It was unclear to me.

[lauramanistee]

Thank you for your video clip
How often do you change the filter.?

[jokersmma]

I followed the directions to a T but now my blender doesn't work? 🤦🏻‍♂️

[lindacowser]

Do you need to sterilize ro tank if so how do you do it?
