How do I install the Omnipure Q5633 inline filter?
Installing the Omnipure Q5633 is simple thanks to its built-in 1/4″ quick-connect push-in fittings. First, shut off your water supply and depressurize the line. Disconnect the old cartridge by pressing the collet on the quick-connect fitting and pulling the tubing out. Insert your 1/4″ tubing firmly into each end of the new Q5633 cartridge until it seats fully. Be sure to follow the arrow on the filter body indicating water flow direction. Turn the water back on, check for leaks, and flush approximately 2–3 gallons through the filter before use to remove any carbon fines.
What applications is the Omnipure Q5633 compatible with?
The Omnipure Q5633 is a versatile inline cartridge compatible with a wide range of applications including refrigerator water lines, ice makers, under-sink drinking water systems, RO system post-filters, coffee and espresso machines, and bottleless water coolers. Its compact 10″ x 2″ size and 1/4″ quick-connect fittings make it a universal replacement for many OEM inline filters used in residential and light commercial setups.
