Common Parts:
Disclaimer: Replacement schedules vary depending on how and where your watermaker is used. For example, pre-filters used inland or near the shore will generally come into contact with more debris/plankton/bacteria than out in open crystal clear blue water and will need to be replaced more often. Plankton and bacteria can decay overnight in warmer climates but last one or two weeks in cooler temperatures. For more information, click here for the Ventura 150 Deluxe Owners Manual.
