Q:
What is the difference between our RO systems?
T1
Q:
Does Waterdrop's RO system use scale inhibitors?
Yes. Like all RO systems in the industry, Waterdrop RO
systems incorporate scale inhibitors to reduce scaling and prolong the lifespan of the RO
membrane. This is a standard and necessary practice in reverse osmosis technology.
It is important to emphasize that the key factor is not simply whether a scale inhibitor is used, but how much is used. All Waterdrop RO systems maintain strict control over dosage, ensuring it remains within safe limits.
Our systems are certified by NSF/ANSI 53, a globally recognized standard that verifies the health and safety of products, including the safe use of additives such as scale inhibitors.

Q:
What is the 11-stage filtration system of the Waterdrop X
Series?
The X Series uses an advanced 11-stage system to
deliver safe, great-tasting drinking water:
(1) Mesh Filter Cotton – Blocks large particles like sand and rust.
(2) Origami Cotton – Increases filtration area for better fine-particle removal.
(3) Activated Carbon – Removes chlorine, odors, and organic matter.
(4) Scale Inhibitor – Prevents scale buildup, protecting the RO membrane.
(5) PP Cotton – Further filters out sediments and small particles.
(6) 0.0001μm RO Membrane – Removes 99.999% of heavy metals, bacteria, and viruses.
(7) Non-woven Fabric – Supports the RO membrane and filters fine impurities.
(8) Activated Carbon – Enhances taste and purity.
(9) Alkaline Layer – Adds minerals like calcium and magnesium.
(10) PP Cotton – Final filter for extra clarity.
(11) UV Sterilization – Kills remaining bacteria and viruses.

Q:
What are the heating functions of Waterdrop K6 and K19-H?
K6 offers two modes: room temperature (up to
100°F/38°C) and hot water (up to 203°F/95°C). The hot water temperature is adjustable from
104°F–203°F (40°C to 95°C), with 1℉ increments via the faucet knob.
K19-H has four preset temperatures:
25°C / 77°F – Room temp
45°C / 113°F – Ideal for baby formula
85°C / 185°F – Great for tea
95°C / 203°F – For coffee or instant meals

Q:
Is RO water bad for the health?
The RO does not make the water unhealthy in any way.
Instead, the purification process may protect the body from many contaminants present in the
water.
Q:
Can the reverse osmosis system be used for hard water?
Yes, but only up to 500 TDS/ppm of incoming source.
Water that is harder than that can cause the filters or system to clog. In order to avoid this
situation, you may need to install prefilter and a NOT salt based softener or scale inhibitor
prior to the system.
Q:
Do I need plumbing services to install the reverse osmosis
system?
No. Waterdrop RO systems are designed for DIY
installation. You can install the system in 30 minutes. Simply refer to the instruction
manual
and instructional videos, or contact us by email, phone, or live chat.

Q:
Why is my water filter pitcher filtering slowly?
Our filters usually take 10-15 mins to filter the
reservoir of water in your pitcher. One common cause of slow filtering is high levels of
sediment in tap water, such as sand or rust that could clog a filter; hardness like limescale,
or a grain of carbon which is blocking the holes. If your water contains high levels of
sediment, consider installing a prefiltration system, such as these ones. Also, you can try removing the filter, shake it
thoroughly to move the granular carbon around, then put it back in the reservoir.
Q:
The lights don’t work on my Filter Life Indicator.
First of all, please try resetting the filter by
pressing down the button 6 times in a row and then hold it for 5 seconds.
If you've been using the pitcher for around a year, it can be that the indicator battery is worn out and needs to be replaced.
If after these options, the light still doesn't turn on, please contact us to help you replace it.

Q:
What happens if my system has a leak?
One possible cause for an apparent leak may be
overfilling. Water may overflow into or over the handle when you pour resulting in what appears
to be a reservoir leak.
If the reason for the leakage appears to be due to the faulty product or damage, please contact our Support, so that we can address the issue accordingly. We offer a 30-days guarantee in case the product gets damaged.

Q:
How do I clean my Waterdrop Faucet Filter?
If your faucet system hasn’t been used for
several
days, wet and reactivate the system’s filter by running water through the filter for 30
seconds.
Q:
What is the light on the pitcher use for?
It is an conveniently visible reminder of filter
replacement time. BLUE light on means that the filter is working well. When it turns RED and
flashes, you need to get ready to replace the filter. If the light stays on RED for 5 seconds,
it’s time to get the filter replaced soon.

Q:
How long do whole house water filters last?
The lifespan of a water filtration system for home can vary significantly depending on several
factors:
Type of Water Filter: Different types of filters have different lifespans. For instance, sediment filters may need to be replaced every few months, while more advanced multi-stage filters could last longer.
Quality and Capacity of the Filter: Higher quality filters with larger capacities can last longer than basic models.
Water Quality: If your water has a high level of contaminants or sediment, filters will clog and need replacing more frequently.
Water Usage: The more water you use, the faster the filter will reach its filtering capacity and require replacement.
On average, here are some general guidelines for the lifespan of common types of whole house water filters:
Sediment Pre-Filters: Every 2-6 months.
Carbon Filters: Every 6-12 months.
Reverse Osmosis Membranes: Every 1-2 years.
Water Softeners and Conditioners: These can last several years but may require maintenance or resin replacement.
It’s important to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for filter replacement to ensure the best performance of your water filtration system. Regular maintenance and timely replacement of filters are crucial for maintaining water quality and prolonging the life of the filtration system.
