    Why is there reduced water pressure after installing my Aquasana Water Filtration System?
    • D
      Diane TaylorAug 7, 2025
      If you experience reduced water pressure after installing your Aquasana Water Filtration System, it may be time to replace the sediment pre-filter. It is generally recommended to replace this filter every 6 months, depending on the sediment amount in your water supply. Inspect the sediment filter, and if it appears clogged, replace it.

    What to do if I see a water leak from the fittings of my Aquasana Water Filtration System?
    • A
      Amy MccoyAug 13, 2025
      If you notice a water leak from the fittings of your Aquasana Water Filtration System, first ensure the connection is tight, but be careful not to overtighten it, as this could cause cracks and further leaking. Before addressing the leak, close the shut-off valve. Then, unscrew the closest union and the threaded connection. Remove any old sealing tape from the fitting and apply new sealing tape, and tighten the connection properly. Use a wrench to ensure all connections are properly tightened, but avoid overtightening. If the leak persists, contact customer service with a pre-recorded video of the issue.

      If the taste or odor of your water has not improved after installing your Aquasana Water Filtration System, make sure that the bypass loop is turned off and that the system shut-off valves are open.

    Why does the water from my Aquasana Water Filtration System appear gray or cloudy?
    • R
      Rachel FletcherAug 31, 2025
      If the water from your Aquasana Water Filtration System appears gray or cloudy, allow air to flush from the water lines. This cloudiness will dissipate over time, potentially taking from a week to a month, and is completely harmless.

    What to do if there is a water leak from the pre/post filter housing of my Aquasana Water Filtration System?

      Crystal RichardsonSep 12, 2025
      If you notice a water leak from the pre/post filter housing of your Aquasana Water Filtration System, first ensure the connection is tight, being careful not to overtighten, which could cause cracks and further leaking. Use the included wrench to further tighten the housing. If the leak continues, close the shut-off valve before the leak, then remove the housing and filter. Clean the o-ring, inside the housing, and all threaded connections. Re-lubricate the o-ring and reassemble with a new filter. If you see a crack or other methods don't stop the leak, contact customer service.
