How to use the Purifier

Here’s a quick step-by-step guide on how to use the Aarke Purifier. Steps 1-6 are only necessary the first time you use a new bag of filter granules. They need to be soaked to work properly.

Change the granules

The granules can be used for 4 weeks or for 120 liters of filtered water. Thereafter the granules are to be replaced. The granules should be disposed in the household waste. Wash the filter cartridge before you fill it with new granules. For best quality of water, store the Purifier in the fridge.

Store the filter refill granules

The filter refill granules should always be kept in the original packing foil, until the granules are to be changed. Do not open before use.

The filter refill granules are to be stored in a cool, dry place and may not be exposed to direct sunlight.

Filter refill reminder

The granules must be replaced every 4 weeks. Use the filter-change indicator in the lid to keep track of when the granules were last replaced. Just set the arrow 4 weeks (one month) from that date. Optimal water is only guaranteed if the granules are changed regularly.
