How do I order replacement filters for my Ultima Reverse Osmosis water filtration system?
Begin by selecting the image of your Ultima RO system displayed on this page https://espwaterproducts.com/collections/ultima-reverse-osmosis.

For convenience, consider opting for a "filter kit" which includes all the necessary filters, though it might not be available for every Ultima model.

Ultima-compatible reverse osmosis filters and membrane can remove common pollutants from water including pesticides, sulfates, fluoride, nitrates, lead, pharmaceuticals, arsenic and more. The RO system's carbon filter will also remove chloramines and chlorine.
How often should I replace filters in my Ultima Reverse Osmosis system?
In Ultima RO systems, replace sediment and carbon pre-filters every 6–12 months, and the RO membrane every 2 years for reliable performance and water quality. Replacing on schedule helps maintain the benefits of RO drinking water — learn more on the RO advantages page. Explore replacement options in the Ultima RO Replacement Filters collection.

What are the signs Ultima RO filters need replacing?
Common signs include slow water flow, poor taste or odor, cloudy water, or higher TDS readings. Slow flow can be due to clogged filters — see causes in the Why RO Water Flow Is Slow page. Replace any outdated filters as soon as you notice these symptoms using parts from the Ultima RO Replacement Filters collection.
Can I install Ultima RO filter replacements myself?
Yes — Ultima RO filters are designed for straightforward DIY replacement. Turn off feed water, depressurize the system, and swap cartridges following your system manual. For general instructions, see the RO Filter Replacement Guide and then choose the correct kit from the Ultima RO filters collection.
How do Ultima RO replacement filters improve water quality?
Fresh sediment filters trap dirt and particles, carbon blocks reduce chlorine and tastes/odors, and the RO membrane removes dissolved solids and contaminants — preserving the key benefits of reverse osmosis water described on the RO advantages page. Replacing filters on schedule ensures consistent water purity.
Are all Ultima RO replacement filters the same size?
Not always. Ultima systems use different stage configurations and filter sizes depending on the model (e.g., 4-stage vs. 5-stage vs. Ultima VI/VII). Always verify your system model and select the correct replacement kit from the Ultima RO Replacement Filters collection or via the Replacement Filter Finder tool.
