How to Remove and change RO Unit Filters????

[mattmike0405]

How the heck are you suppose to remove the membranes off your RO units to change the filters when they're so **** tight?? Please help me! Thanks

I use a strap wrench for mine. The removal tool I was provided didn't work very well. A strap wrench works great :rock:

I use the wrench it came with and works fine, I guess if your weak you can use other tools.

This is what I use.

I wore some rubber gloves and was able to take them off. Otherwise use a strap wrench which costs around $5

If you go the strap wrench method make sure you are gripping and end, if you get in the middle and really force it you could crack the housing.
