Replace chemical media (e.g., activated carbon) as per manufacturer recommendations.
6. Pulizia girante: Inspect and clean the impeller and its housing. Remove any debris or buildup that could impede its rotation.
7. Rimontaggio: Reassemble the filter in reverse order, ensuring all seals and O-rings are clean and properly seated. Lubricate O-rings with silicone grease if necessary.
