Maintenance

The Mimbox needs some care taking to perform as good as possible and to prevent future issues. There are two things included in the maintenance:

  • Emptying the filter bag

  • Cleaning water collection unit

Empty filter bag

The filter bag is where the microplastics and other dirt end up. The Mimbox indicates when the filter bag needs emptying by blinking. Empty the filter bag in the trash can and put it back. Avoid cleaning the bag in the sink, microplastics will be released with the waste water.

  1. Open the hatch and take out the container.

  2. Take out the filter bag and empty the content in the trash. Put the filter bag back in the container. (Check if there are special requirements for deposit depending on types of site). Clean it if needed, and place the filter in the container again.

  3. Clean the inside with a damp cloth.

  4. Put the filter container back and make sure the hatch is closed. Clean the outside with a cloth.

Cleaning water collection unit

The water collection unit needs to be cleaned preferably every week depending on what kind of laundry room and the level of dirt. By cleaning regularly you give the Mimbox the best chance to perform as it should.

  1. Take out the filter basket and clean it with the scraper. 

  2. Push the service button for 3 seconds to start the cleaning sequence. 

  3. The water collection unit is sprayed with water, use the brush to clean it.

  4. Put the filter basket back.

  5. Make sure the pipes from the washing machine have the right angle.


Service

Since the Mimbox processes grey water on a daily basis it needs to be cleaned and serviced regularly. The service is only to be done by trained service technicians since the service involves opening the Mimbox up and that involves a safety risk.
