What to do if my Brita filter is clogged?

If your Brita filter is clogged, it may be time for a replacement or a thorough cleaning. Filters can become less effective when they accumulate sediment or contaminants, leading to slow water flow. Clogging can also occur if you frequently fill the dispenser with unfiltered water or fill it too quickly. To resolve this, try running cold water through the filter for a few minutes to clear it out. If that doesn’t help, replace the filter with a new one. For instance, if you're experiencing very weak water flow, it’s likely a sign that the filter needs to be changed. PRO TIP: Regularly replace your filter every 40 gallons or every two months for optimal performance. CONSIDERATION: If you often have sediment-rich water, investing in a pre-filtering system might be beneficial.
