If water isn’t flowing or slows down, here are a few quick fixes:
Vapor Lock: Loosen the top lid slightly to allow airflow between chambers.
Air Bubbles: If your filter dried out during storage, soak it in water for 24 hours. You can also gently suck through it like a straw to remove trapped air.
Storage Tip: If not using your filter for more than a week, seal it in a plastic bag with filtered water and refrigerate it. Never let it dry out completely.
Pre-Primed: Filters may arrive wet—that’s intentional. They’re sealed and ready to use out of the box. Some filters come with a cap, others don't. All are safe and ready to use.
