  1. How frequently do the various consumables need to be changed?

    The frequency that consumables must be changed depends on the system's usage (treated water volume) and on the consumables themselves (time of usage). In order to ensure the quality of water and your results, the consumables should be replaced when the system alerts you.

  2. What is the consumables delivery time?

    Refer to the consumable's Product page for a first estimation of its expected delivery time and contact customer service for more information.

  3. How are consumables changed?

    To help you to change your system's consumables, several video tutorials are available on our YouTube channel: Milli-Q®System Care Tutorials. For high-flow systems, please keep in mind that all consumable changes must be approved by a 3-digit code that only the person in charge of the system knows.

    It's possible to place only one consumable order per year with a specific contract called "Consumable Supply Agreement (CSA)" For further information, contact your local representative or sales contact.
