Maintenance

Regular cleaning and maintenance are essential to ensure your pet always has access to clean, fresh water and to prolong the life of your Petmate Replendish Waterer.

Cleaning:

• Bottle Cleaning: The Replendish Bottle is not dishwasher safe. We recommend hand washing the bottle with a bottle brush and warm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue.
• Base Cleaning: The Replendish Base is dishwasher safe. For best results, place it on the top rack of your dishwasher.
• Filter Replacement: Replace the charcoal filter regularly (e.g., every 4-6 weeks, or as needed based on water quality and pet usage) to maintain water purity. Replacement filters are sold separately.
