http://www.filterwater.asia/products/3M--WFP%252d322.html

the catridge need to be replace

but the catridge CS-15 no longer being manufactured.

I chk with 3m and its reseller, looks i have to buy a new set, near to $2k sad.gif

i wonder is it possible to buy the current available catridge from this current model AP DWS1000, and just replace my cs-15 catridge?

really don't want to buy a new set, else every year need to spend that much, what's the point to have the catridge to be replacable?

That's bad. I was about to buy the DWS1000 but if 3m don't keep stock of replacement then it is not worth investing in their product.

This product is by 3M but not distributed by 3M Malaysia, therefore you cant get the replacement cartridge in Malaysia. I believe the reseller who sold you this model, imported it by themselves or purchased it online from other countries. It is important to purchase the product from an AUTHORIZED dealer like us and also to double check whether the product is carried by 3M Malaysia.

For those who purchased APDWS1000, AP902 or other 3M water filters from us, you do not have to worry about this issue as the products sold by us are supported by 3M Malaysia and they will bring in the replacement cartridges for extra minimum 5 years even the product has been discontinued.

Here is 3M Malaysia website

Strange, that looks like a generic cartridge according to the documentation here :

THe link that you provided is 3M United States. As mentioned 3M Malaysia does not carry that model and that is why the replacement cartridge is not available. Resellers could bring in other models from ebay, amazon and etc and sell it in their showrooms to make higher margin or profit but 3M malaysia does sell those replacement cartridges. In Malaysia the main indoor water filters are AP Easy Complete, APDWS1000 and AP Easy Cyst.

Ok. Got me a bit worried. I was in your shop on Saturday. Will be getting the 3M external filter as well as drinking water ones from you in May.

Great, if getting outdoor + indoor there will b a special package price to it and lots of savings smile.gif i bliv u got the quotation from us already.

This 3M case is similar to buying Handphones. There are Original & AP set. For example, if you buy AP Nokia handphone, you cant claim warranty from Nokia, you can only claim it from the supplier, for original u can claim it from any zithron shop. Similarly, if you purchase an "AP" 3M water filter which is not distributed by 3M Malaysia, you can only claim warranty and purchase the replacement cartridges from the reseller.

These are the 6 different filter cartridges for Cosway Hexagon Alkaline Hi-Energy Structured Water System 6 Stage Filtration:

Cartridge 1
Pre-filtration
A Dupont MicroFree? Anti-Bacteria PP Filter and an Activated Carbon Block Filter removes rust, sediment and other suspended particles and eliminates bacteria, preparing the water for Cartridge 2.

Cartridge 2
Ceramic Filtration
Made from Diatomaceous Earth (deposits from the bottom of lakes and lagoons that have been compressed and baked at high temperatures), this ceramic filter has a consistent minute pore size of 0.3-0.7 micron to eliminate harmful microbes* and particulates. This cartridge is easily taken out for cleaning whenever the surface gets dirty.

*E.coli (1.0-1.5 microns), Salmonella (1.2-1.8 microns), Cryptosporidium (4-6 microns), Giardia (5-20 microns), Cholera and Typhoid (1 micron)..

Cartridge 3
Mineralization
Consists of the renowned Mai Fan Shi longevity stone (called longevity stone) and an exclusive combination of mineral stones to alkalinize and infuse water with a wide spectrum of ionic and trace minerals. This cartridge lasts a lifetime.

Cartridge 4
Primary Purification
Ion exchange resins soften water and using ionic absorption, an Activated Carbon Block removes unpleasant odors, colors, and toxic substances such as chlorine, trihalomethanes (THMs), organic chemicals and even radioactive compounds.

Cartridge 5
Secondary Purification
An Activated Carbon Block and KDF Granular Activated Carbon Block remove any residual chemicals, including soluble heavy metals and dissolved toxic gases such as methane and hydrogen sulfides, through an electrochemical process.

Cartridge 6
Energization
A powerful EC3000 Energy Converter, with bio-ceramic beads made of 26 clays and mineral oxides, emits intensive FIR which activates water with healthful energy, enhances its oxygen load, and reduces its molecules into small clusters. The EC3000 is designed to last a lifetime.


Replacement Filter Cartridges: Can easily get at any Cosway store near your area (in Malaysia). Out of the 6 filters, 2 are designed to last forever and don't need replacement, only 4 filters need to be changed depending on usage. For best water quality, if 2-3 people at home, recommend to change every 2 to 3 years, if 6 or more people, then recommend to change every 1 to 2 years for best water quality. Price of replacement filter cartridge is only RM80 each (very cheap compared to other brands), and can be purchased conveniently at any Cosway store near you. So you don't have to worry you can't find the replacement filters later on.
