Culligan PIT-1 Water Filter Pitcher Today this is the Culligan PIT-1 or pitcher-1.
It’s a real simple unit, great entry level model for those of you who are thinking about
getting into filtering your water, and you’re just not sure, you just want to test the waters
and see what the deal is. Here’s a great inexpensive way to get in and also a perfect
method for those of you who are renting and just simply can’t install a permanent system
and you want the portability factor. Real easy to handle these units, the lid comes
off and the cartridge is right here. I’m not going to take it out of the package, but
if I did you would wash your hands, take it out of the package, soak it in water for fifteen
minutes, run it under some running water to rinse away the carbon fines and get the cartridge
ready to go. Then stick it in here, it just inserts into this slot. Twist it in place
and fill it with water. You might have to discard the first couple batches of water,
there might be some loose carbon fines that you might not want to drink. Just pour that
off, fill it up again, let it filter; those carbon fines will go away after one or two
pitchers full of water and then you’ve got yourself a filter cartridge that’s good
for fifty gallons of water. Now this unit’s a real basic unit so it
doesn’t have a timer device or anything like that. It’s got a little calendar here,
a little dial calendar, and you’re just going to click that from month to month. Just
set it, you know you change your filter in October, in one month now it’s November,
now it’s December and now it’s time to change the cartridge.
Probably good for anywhere from one to two months, depending on how quickly you think
you’re going through fifty gallons of water. Nice thing about this, it can be disassembled
and washed; it’s not dishwasher safe so don’t put it in the dishwasher. But get
in here with a scrub brush and soap and water and wash it out and it goes back together
like nothing. Cartridge, lid it up, ice cold filtered water in the fridge.
That’s the Culligan PIT-1.
