Instructions
- Make sure to screw in your adapters firmly, but do not overtighten!
- For maximum filtering efficiency, use a flow rate of 2L per minute. Filter can be used at a maximum of 9L per minute.
- Make sure to connect the inlet to the correct end as marked.
- On first use, run the unit for 2 minutes to settle the filter contents.
- Store the filter in an upright position to allow the unit to drain in between uses.
- Replace your Dr Greenthumbs water filter after 12 months of use.
- Please note; connect the hose to the end that has the ridge on it, so the flow is running the same way as the arrows on the filter. The flow direction is clearly marked on the filter if you are confused.
Please Note - These filters are not intended to be dragged around on the end of a hose; if you would like to use the filter connected to your garden hose, please connect it at the tap end and secure it in place (we sell mounting clips for this purpose) before connecting your watering wand/sprayer end.
Why is chlorine in tap water harmful to plants?
Chlorine in tap water can be detrimental to plants as it is added to kill germs and purify water, but it can harm plants by causing yellowing leaves, stunted growth, and potentially death. Chlorine can also disrupt the nutrient uptake by accumulating in the soil.
What are the benefits of using a filter to remove chlorine from water for plants?
Removing chlorine from water through filtering promotes healthy growth and reduces stress in plants. It ensures that the water is pure and safe, enhancing the plant's ability to absorb nutrients and preventing the harmful buildup of chlorine in the soil.
How does the water filter attach and how does it work?
The water filter easily attaches to your garden hose. It's designed to instantly remove chlorine and sediment, making it ideal for organic living soil growers and compost tea brewing. It also makes water safe for mycorrhizae and beneficial bacteria.
What are the guidelines for using and maintaining the water filter?
For maximum efficiency, use a flow rate of 2L per minute. Connect the inlet to the marked end and run the unit for 2 minutes upon first use to settle the filter. Store the filter upright for drainage and replace it after 12 months of use. The filter is not meant to be dragged around; it's better used to fill containers.
What are the differences between the 10" and 12" models, and what is the CHLORAMINE option?
The 10" model treats up to 5000L of water, while the 12" model can handle 8000L. A new CHLORAMINE option is available, offering additional filtering capabilities, though it's in limited availability. This option should be selected based on specific needs.
