    For those like me struggling to get the lid on, the filter is in wrong. You don’t simply line it up with the squares. Look down into the reservoir where the filter goes. You’ll see a long raised line. There’s a groove on one side of your filter. The 2 need to line up. Then your lid should fit.

    • @gailtaylor1636
      @gailtaylor1636 3 роки тому +1

      Line the groove in the filter with the handle. Must push filter in firmly. I wasn't getting to seated properly and it would fall out when tipped over. Seems to work fine now. Soaking second fill right now. Did first fill completely wrong. As if you can fill a pitcher wrong. LOL! But yep.

    ok this is going to sound dumb, but I can't get the cover on? it feels like the filter is up to high and blocking it from pushing down...

    • @TheShackHome
      @TheShackHome  8 років тому +11

      Alesha Michaud first I would question the filter make sure it is the correct one and there is a notch so that filter will only fit in one way spin it around make sure if you have the crisscross at the bottom make sure it slides past that. It is not fitting due to the filter really there's only a couple of reasons why
      filter too big possibly for a different model
      Filter not set in the reservoir properly if it is in where the notch is push it down in the filter should be level with the reservoir inside. Not a dumb question sometimes you just need a third brain to help out with possibilities

      Elizabeth Just try what i suggested to Alesha But, there are occasions that it might be a faulty lid. Just make sure the filter is seated in all the way, if the lid doesn't fit on the pitcher properly may try returning it for a new one. Take a deep breath it's ok.

    Basic question - where exactly is the max filter line? I heard it's just slightly below the filter, but for the model I have, it may be the general defined 'ring' that's about two inches from the base.

    • @tomnye5761
      @tomnye5761 4 роки тому +1

      Sean McCarthy I was wondering the same thing. Is that line a few inches from the bottom the max fill line? Do you just fill it up to the top of the lid once and then let that filter through and consider that to be full. It’s a really big pitcher. I imagined filling the whole thing when I bought it, not just the bottom 3 inches of it.

Water goes right thru it just like the 12 I purchased. Going to have to find a better filtration system.

    I'm still not sure about how much water to put in the pitcher. The thing that confuses me is if the pitcher is full of water it doesn't get to run through the filter because it's sitting underneath the filter. I agree with others that it was nice not to hear sound but for me I would have preferred him to say something like "fill the pitcher up to this line".

      Julia these are just mold injection they may not be scratches could be just stress marks in the plastic from the process or a flaw in the die that they are made from. If they are noticeable yes return it but really nothing to worry about. It is a flaw they should be clear but over time you will get scratches on the picture it unavoidable.

      Lisa that all lies with in your personal use. Just read the info and see what the manufacture suggests as far as liters/gallons and determine from there. With the indicator on top of the one I had I changed per its indicator that it was due. Prior to that was just average how many gallons we use per week and changed based on that. The more you use it the sooner it will need to be changed. I have moved on from the filtered pictures and purchased a reverse osmosis system and never looked back. Between my wife and I we drink at least 1.5 gallons per day plus family on weekends Also Ice maker uses the water from the system. We are on the very high end of the water consumption spectrum.

    Are you supposed to keep the lid open and wait till the water goes down and continue filling it up till it's full or no?

    • @TheShackHome
      @TheShackHome  7 років тому +1

      No, just fill, close the lid and let it filter. I, after pouring a cup of water would fill the reservoir again close the lid put it back in the fridge always had a full picture but I would never fill it up twice in a row . You don't want to have water standing in the reservoir and try to pour a cup of water and have it pour out of the reservoir

    • @BasketofLotion
      @BasketofLotion 7 років тому

      Oh ok, I just feel like it'll make the sensor turn red sooner from opening the lid more often and having to fill it more even when it's not completely empty yet.

    • @TheShackHome
      @TheShackHome  7 років тому +1

      Its based on every time you fill the reservoir. If you leave the lid open and fill again your defeating its purpose. Filling more than the filter is to be used for.

      My question also! Some pitchers have a fill line and some don't. NONE of the videos even show where the final fill line ended up to be. I got a five cup model and I poured five cups into it quickly so it wouldn't start filtering and I marked where five cups ended up when full.

    • @TheShackHome
      @TheShackHome  6 років тому

      Are you talking about the filter indicator? if so just go by the factory recommendations for filter replacement and adjust for the amount you use. WE use ours for coffee and tea every day so just about every month we would change it out because we used it a lot.

    Why has Brita stopped manufacturing this model? They now have the new model that doesn't have the cap that lifts when you pour water out from the spout. It's a fairly big opening with the new models with insects falling inside. Please give us back the old model. the one featured here in this video.

    I'm pretty sure I have the same model which I got from Costco. Every time I pour, the indicator light doesn't flash at all. I held the reset button down till the green light shows (which works every time), however, it doesn't flash when I pour. Is that normal?

    • @TheShackHome
      @TheShackHome  7 років тому

      Luke it wont flash when you pour. It scenes when it tilts to pour or when its open to fill. Basically preset amount of time for filling it knows it's time to replace. Only should flash when reset and indicate progress till its time to replace.

    • @TheShackHome
      @TheShackHome  8 років тому +1

      +Lazy Sleeper every time you open the lid to fill the pitcher the motion sensor detect the lid in the upright position. When the lid is closed it blinks 3 times either, green yellow or red. After so many fills the light goes from green to red. Factory presets so you get the most out of every filter for best results. When it flashes red you need to replace the filter. After you replace the filter you push and hold the reset button till it resets and flashes green release and you’re ready for another cycle.

    • @TheShackHome
      @TheShackHome  7 років тому

      tml no iron removal. That is a completely different animal. If she is on a well id have to suggest a whole house iron filter. You can go with a reverse osmosis under counter system but the iron will clog the filters up more quickly. Sorry the Brita does not.

      Tiara its to rinse out the dust off the charcoal from manufacturing. You will notice a fog in the water the very first user. Its a precautionary measure to make sure the charcoal is free from any contaminates, dust anything from its making.

  • @gkm1361

    I just bought one it's a different set up. I rinsed the filter held the button until it was green then filled it 3 times like it said. Now when i hit the button the green light shows up next to "standard filter" which I think is right.. For some reason it has a metal like chemical after taste...anyone know why? I lost the instruction manual so im wondering if i did something wrong! It burns my throat slightly cause of the after taste.
