Lock the head, relieve pressure via the flush valve, twist off the old cartridge, fit the new one, then flush before returning equipment to service — the same quick-change process as the rest of the IX range, using 3/8" push-fit connections.

Based on 180ppm influent hardness at bypass 0, the Medium cartridge is rated for 2,000 litres and the Large for 3,644 litres. Actual life will vary with your local water hardness and mineral profile.
