Brita pitcher has mold growing in the water? Has anyone seen this before.?
i normally refill my brita pitcher every night because i drink lots of water daily. but this past weekend i wasn't around and my the water was in the pitcher all weekend hanging around for two whole days. when i came back i notice that there was mold growing in the water? couple of things to note: i have the brita pitcher for over a year and i wash it every time i switch the filter which is apporiximately every 1 1/2 to 2 months.
just want to know if any one seen this before behavior before and if it still safe to use the pitcher with a new filter? or should i just buy a new brita system?
Answers:
It happens to mine all the time. I just dump out the water and clean it again.
It helps to use a bit of bleach when washing between filters.
