User questions & answers

Question:	My Brita filter keeps smelling bad even after cleaning. Any tips
Answer:	Pitcher made in China, Filter made in Canada
Question:	How often does it need cleaning
Answer:	I don't have any problem pouring water into glasses or bowls with the Brita. But there is one thing you need to beware of. The plastic top 'snaps down' in place. Sometimes it can come loose, and then a flood of water will pour out of the top, and over everything. To stop this from happening, I always put pressure on the top with one hand, when I am pouring water.
Question:	Is this dispenser compatible with the blue longlast filters or just the standard white ones? Thanks
Answer:	The easy way to get the white part dislodged is this: Remove the filter. Fill the pitcher all the way up with warm water and a dab of dishwashing liquid. Now turn it upside down. The force of the water and gravity will dislodge the white part. The soap adds some extra slip to dislodge things and cleans the pitcher. I might be a 90 pound weakling but I'm still an engineer's daughter.
Question:	How tall is the black one? It seems as though the black is shorter and wider than the gray one but getting mixed info. Thanks
Answer:	Mythbusters tested this concept and busted it. Myth: You can turn low-end vodka into top-shelf vodka with six filtrations of a domestic charcoal water filter (i.e. Brita filters). They set up the experiment so that the vodka testers would each get 8 shots of vodka: 6 from the filtration stations (single filtered, twice filtered, etc...), 1 top-shelf vodka, and 1 unfiltered low-end shot. The tasters were asked to rank the shots. Anthony Dias Blue, vodka expert, executive director San Francisco World Spirits Competion: his ranking corresponded exactly to the number of filtrations, with the top-shelf vodka picked as the best. Anthony: "Passing a low-end vodka through a filter will make it better, but it won't make it a top-shelf vodka" They further analyzed the vodka samples and found that there was no difference in chemical composition between the filtered vodka and the unfiltered vodka. Conclusion: You're better off buying the top-shelf stuff than wasting a bunch of water filters.

Question:	My light indicator there stopped working. Is there anything can be done? Other than buying a new one of course
Answer:	Looks like the little piece is plastic on mine (on the side inside the filter housing), but I also scraped at it and it freed up a little rectangular plastic piece that popped part way out, like a tray. Put the filter back in and now the light is correctly flashing green. Was about to call Pur.
Question:	Does this system have three choices for water (filtered water, spray and regular flow
Answer:	Yes there is a 90degree ball valve on the side that allows you to choose between filtered and straight tap water. It works great and after a month of heavy use I haven't had any leakage or signs of wear.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this system able to remove up to 50ppm of nitrates
Answer:	The test for Nitrate reduction for this system uses 27ppm in the incoming water supply and needs to reduce it to 10ppm or less to pass. This system passed this test. We cannot say that it will work on incoming water supplies with 50ppm of nitrates as that has not been tested. We would recommend talking to the EPA to see what they suggest for those levels of Nitrates. The EPA Drinking water hotline is 800-426-4791.
Question:	Will this remove salt from water that's gone through a softener
Answer:	Yes it is
Question:	What is the expected lifetime of the equipment and membranes. In other words, how long are the membranes and device itself meant to last
Answer:	The pre filter (top) and post filter (bottom) should be replaced every 6 months. The membrane (middle) should be replaced every 2 years.
Question:	The water under my sink is a 1/4 male does this come with that adapter fitting? if not where can I get it
Answer:	This system comes with a water supply fitting that has 3/8" female threads to connect to the plumbing. We do not sell any adaptors for 1/4" but you can purchase one at local home improvement stores, hardware stores, or plumbing supply companies.
