Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your PUR Faucet Mount Water Filtration System, consider the following common solutions:
- Slow Water Flow: This often indicates a clogged filter. Replace the filter as per the maintenance instructions.
- Leaking from Unit: Ensure the system is securely attached to the faucet adapter. Check that the filter is properly seated within the unit. If leaks persist, check the O-rings for damage or improper placement.
- Unfiltered Water Taste/Odor: If filtered water still has an undesirable taste or odor, the filter may be exhausted or improperly installed. Replace the filter and ensure it is correctly seated.
- System Not Fitting Faucet: Verify your faucet has a visible, external aerator. If not, the system is incompatible. If it does, ensure you are using the correct adapter and it is securely tightened.
