To ensure you keep getting clean and safe drinking water, it is important to clean and maintain your water purifier. Without proper maintenance and care, the water purifier will not function properly, and you may end up needing to spend and replace your water purifier. Here are some useful tips on how you can maintain and clean your water purifier for effective, trouble-free and long-lasting operations.

Exterior
Outer Surface of your water purifier – To effectively clean the outer surface of your water purifier, use a dry cloth to clean. Do not clean aggressively or rub the surface as it might lead to scratches on the water purifier. Clean off any stains on the surface regularly to prevent any discolouration.
Remove and clean nozzle – For those water purifiers that are equipped with a detachable nozzle, remove them regularly and wash them to ensure that harmful contaminants and bacteria does not stay on them.
Clear any water in drip tray daily – Any water in your water purifier’s drip tray if left untouched for long will turn into stagnant water. These water provides the perfect breeding ground for health hazards such as bacteria and mosquitoes. Clear away any water in your drip tray every day to avoid these risks!

Interior
Change your filters promptly – The most essential aspect is to change your filters in your water purifier as and when they are due for replacement to ensure the cleanest of water possible for you and your family. If you are using the Ruhens V Series, which has a filter indicator, look out for the indicator lights blinking. And if you are using a Ruhens model that does not come with an indicator, feel free to reach out to our service team to understand more about the filter replacement cycle.
Drain storage tanks – Drain the water in your storage tank if your water purifier is not used for more than 5 days.
