My water is cloudy or contains black carbon particles
- Cloudy water is caused by microscopic air bubbles. Run two gallons (7.6 L) of water from your dispenser to clear the air bubbles out.
- Black carbon particles in the water are normal and appear with all carbon filters.
Run two gallons (7.6 L) of water through your dispenser to remove loose carbon particles.
