Filter Technology

The ACMEROTA replacement filters utilize a multi-stage filtration system to provide clean and healthy water for your pet:

1. Filter Element Mesh: Blocks large impurities like pet hair and debris.
2. Large Diameter Coconut Shell Activated Carbon: Effectively filters out residual chlorine, impurities, and odors, and absorbs harmful substances.
3. Ion Exchange Resin: Softens tap water and filters out heavy metal ions, reducing the risk of pet illness.
4. High-Density Porous Filter Cotton: Further filters out small impurities, dirt, dust, and sand.

Setup and Installation

Follow these steps to prepare and install your new filter:

1. Rinse Filter: Before first use, thoroughly rinse the filter cartridge and foam sponge under running water for at least one minute. This removes any loose carbon dust from the surface.
2. Soak Filter: After rinsing, soak the filter cartridge in clean water for five minutes. This helps activate the filter materials and ensures optimal performance.
3. Install Filter: Place the filter cartridge into the designated slot in your DownyPaws DPWFP6 fountain. Ensure the flat side of the filter is facing upwards.
4. Install Foam Sponge: Place the square foam sponge into its compartment, typically around the pump area.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance is crucial for maintaining water quality and the longevity of your fountain:

• Water Changes: It is recommended to change the water in the fountain and clean the fountain machine every two to three days.
• Filter Replacement: Replace the filter cartridge and foam sponge every one to two weeks in summer, and every two to three weeks in winter. This frequency may vary depending on the number of pets, water quality, and frequency of use.
• Cleaning Brush: Use the provided cleaning brush to clean the fountain's pump and other components during water changes.

Troubleshooting

• Filter does not fit: Ensure you have the correct model (DownyPaws DPWFP6). If the square foam sponge appears slightly large for the pump area, it can be gently trimmed to fit without affecting filtration performance.
• Water flow is reduced: This often indicates a clogged filter. Replace the filter cartridge and foam sponge as per the recommended maintenance schedule. Also, ensure the fountain pump is clean.
• Water has an unusual taste or odor: This suggests the filter is no longer effectively purifying the water. Replace the filter immediately and clean the fountain thoroughly. Ensure the initial rinsing and soaking steps were followed.
