Housing spanner is too big that I bought online. I cannot undo either canister as they are completely smooth on the outside! There's nothing to grip! Can I undo them somehow from the base of the cartridges? HELP!!
You need to makes sure that the water is turned off and that your water filter tap at the sink is open, if there is any pressure on the system at all you will not be able to open the housings. If this fails and you are sure that the feed water is shut off, you may want to remove the tubing from the elbow and take the system to a workbench? Let us know if you need any further help please.
@@ClearchoicewaterfiltersAu I had the same issue and as soon as I opened up the water filter tap I was able to loosen the cartridge housing with the water housing tool you used in your video. Thanks for this tip and great video!
The length of time between servicing the system should not make a difference. Sometimes the housings are tightened up too much when the cartridges are installed,.
Super helpful, i appreciate it!

A pair of big channel locks , or a pipe wrench, or an oil filter wrench
I did this but now no water comes out of the tap. It worked fine before. What might be the problem?
Sorry to hear that. What cartridges did you put in please?
@@ClearchoicewaterfiltersAu maybe they are joking as at the end of the video you don't say to turn the water back on
Hot wota !
What happens when they are stuck
Ask a man to do it
Should we not let the water run for a few minutes to clean the new cartridges???
Yes!
Mine just won't turn at all. Completely stuck. What do i do?

Is it normal for black water to come out at first?
Yes it is that is carbon fines that you are seeing, it will clear after 20-40 seconds
What if I haven't changed it in more than 12 months and it won't come off?
