- 1). Source an outdoor room that has a door which can be locked. Keep this store room locked when you are storing Nature2 cartridges in it.
- 2). Erect a sturdy shelf 6 feet and 3/4 inches from the ground and 1 1/2 feet deep, if one is not already present in this store room.
- 3). Place the cartridges on the shelf and not on the ground, where pets and children can access them. The manufactures of Nature2 cartridges caution that the mineral media contents of the cartridges should not be ingested by either humans or by companion animals.
- 4). Place the cartridges toward the back of the shelf. Position them against the wall, so that there is no chance that they will be knocked off onto the floor. The manufactures of the Nature2 cartridges recommend that you call a poison control center or doctor immediately for treatment if the content of a broken cartridge is eaten.
- 5). Keep a brush and dust pan or preferably a vacuum in the store room so that the mineral media can be removed in the unlikely event that a cartridge breaks. According to the manufacturers, any media that is ingested, even by pets, could cause gastric distress.
- 6). Do not store the Nature2 cartridges for unnecessarily long periods of time. The manufacturers of Nature2 cartridges indicate that a cartridge is active for approximately four months in the filter system. Purchase a replacement Nature2 cartridge after you have placed your last cartridge into the filter system.
