Q&A
How frequently do I need to change the filter?
The charcoal filter and foam filter should be changed every 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the number of pets using the fountain. Having more pets that use the fountain will increase the saliva content and debris in the water, so the filter will need to be changed more frequently.
How often should I clean the fountain?
It is common for some residual charcoal dust to seep from the filter. This is perfectly normal and not harmful to your pet in any manner. To help prevent the charcoal dust from shedding, rinse the filter thoroughly under running water before placing it inside the fountain.
Why am I finding small black particles in my pet’s fountain?
The fountain should be cleaned at least every 2 weeks. Please clean it once a week if you are in hard water.
How long will the fountain pump last?
The fountain runs on a long-life pump. The pump normally lasts between 2.5~4 years(>20,000 hours). If the pump has been in regular use for approximately this time period, it may need replacing.
How long will the fountain pump last?
