Demonstrating how I manage the water filter change and the hints I put on the components to remind me of the order to make the change in this five step process. A more granular 12 step process is described below.
My initial filter was a wound cord type but I find the bonded polypropylene type work just as well if not better. I replace my filter every three months but your schedule may vary up to six months.
Step 1 Turn off main water supply to house
Step 2 Relieve pressure at a faucet on the cold water side
Step 3 Isolates filter from the water system - to minimize water drainage
Step 4 Remove filter housing
Step 5 Clean filter housing - I use diluted dish soap
Step 6 Change filter
Step 7 Check rubber seal is clean and in good condition
Step 8 Refit housing with the new filter
Step 9 Integrate filter with the water system
Step 10 Turn on main water supply to house *gently*
Step 11 Check water flow at faucet
Step 12 Let the filter drain before recycling or disposal - this can take weeks
