How This Automation Works
Installation Date Anniversary or Scheduled Maintenance Interval → Customer Receives Personalized Replacement Reminder
Track Installation and Service Dates
The system monitors your customer database and automatically logs each RO system installation date, filter specifications, and recommended replacement intervals. It creates individual service schedules for each customer based on their specific system requirements and manufacturer guidelines.
Calculate Replacement Due Dates
Based on the tracked installation dates and filter lifespans, the system calculates exact replacement due dates for each filter component. It accounts for different intervals (sediment filters at 6 months, membranes at 24 months) and sets reminder trigger points 30 days before service is due.
Send Personalized Customer Reminders
When the trigger date arrives, the system automatically generates and sends personalized reminders via the customer's preferred communication channel. Messages include their service history, specific parts needed, current pricing, and direct links to schedule appointments online.
Manage Follow-Up Sequences
If customers don't respond to the initial reminder, the system automatically sends follow-up messages at predetermined intervals (typically 14 days and 7 days later). Each follow-up can include additional incentives, urgency messaging, or alternative contact methods to maximize response rates.
Update Records and Confirm Appointments
When customers book appointments, the system automatically updates their service records, syncs with your scheduling calendar, assigns technicians, and sends confirmation details. After service completion, it resets the replacement cycle for the next interval, maintaining continuous maintenance tracking.
How It Works
Reverse osmosis filter replacements are critical for maintaining water quality, yet customers often forget scheduled maintenance intervals. This automated reminder system tracks installation dates, calculates replacement schedules based on manufacturer recommendations, and sends proactive notifications to customers via email or SMS. The system maintains a complete service history, automatically updates customer records, and can trigger follow-up sequences for non-responsive customers. By automating this process, plumbing businesses eliminate manual tracking, reduce customer churn, improve water quality compliance, and create predictable recurring revenue streams. The system integrates with your existing CRM and scheduling tools to streamline the entire maintenance cycle from reminder to booking confirmation.
The Trigger
The automation initiates when a reverse osmosis system reaches its predetermined filter replacement interval (typically 6, 12, or 24 months after installation or last service). It can also trigger based on flow rate data if connected to smart monitoring systems, or manual schedule overrides for specific customer requirements.
The Action
The system automatically sends a multi-channel reminder (email, SMS, or push notification) containing the customer's service history, specific filter models needed, current pricing, and direct booking links. If no response is received within 7 days, a follow-up sequence initiates. Confirmed appointments sync directly to your scheduling system and update customer records.
