How Do I Clean My PUR Water Pitcher?

Published in Water Filtration 2 mins read

To clean your PUR water pitcher effectively, you'll need to clean both the filter and the pitcher itself. Here's how:

Cleaning the PUR Water Filter

  1. Soak the Filter: Begin by soaking the filter in cold water for 15 minutes. This helps to prepare it for optimal filtration.

Cleaning the PUR Water Pitcher Components

  1. Disassemble: Take apart your PUR water pitcher, separating the pitcher, lid, pour tray, and any removable filter cover (if your model has one).
  2. Hand Wash: Wash each component by hand using mild, soapy water. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scrub brushes, as they can damage the plastic.
  3. Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse all parts well with clean water to remove any soap residue.
  4. Rinse Filter: Hold the filter under cold running tap water for 10 seconds. This helps flush out any loose particles.
  5. Air Dry: Allow all the components to air dry completely before reassembling the pitcher.

Important Notes:

  • Do not put any part of the PUR water pitcher in the dishwasher, as the high heat can warp or damage the plastic.
  • Always use mild dish soap to avoid damaging the components.
  • Regular cleaning helps maintain the hygiene and performance of your PUR water pitcher.
