Pressure Tank - If the plumbing system uses a bladder pressure tank, it will be in the system prior to the Matrixx inFusion system. This tank should be drained periodically to remove any build up of contaminants. Typically once a quarter is sufficient but that frequency may need to be increased on systems with high contaminant levels.
Injection Panel - The internal pump tube and injection duck bill check valve may need to be replaced periodically. They typically last 1 - 5 years depending on the usage. There is a spare tube shipped with the system and instructional videos explaining how to change the tube at www.uswatersystems.com. Replacement duck bill check valves can be purchased at www.uswatersystems.com as well.
Catalytic Carbon - The catalytic carbon is virtually maintenance free. However, if there is a power outage, the clock and other settings need to be checked to ensure the filter will backwash properly at the proper time of day. It is crucial that the catalytic carbon backwashes at a time when there is no water being used in the house or contamination of the plumbing system can occur. This media typically lasts 3 - 5 years in most applications before it is exhausted.
