FAQs
Is the Nalgene Silo BPA-free?

Will this fit in my car's cup holder?
Due to its 1.5-litre size, it is generally too wide for standard automotive cup holders.

Does the bottle come with a cap leash?

Troubleshooting
Cap leaking after use

Residual odors or tastes
Fill the bottle with a mixture of baking soda and water, let it sit overnight, then rinse thoroughly in the dishwasher.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure longevity, wash the bottle thoroughly with mild soap and warm water before its first use. While the bottle is dishwasher safe, ensure it is placed on the top rack away from heating elements to prevent warping. The 63mm opening is compatible with most standard backcountry water filters, but verify that your specific filter attachment fits securely before venturing out. For routine maintenance, use a bottle brush to reach the base if you have been using the container for electrolyte mixes, which can leave residue. Always ensure the cap is tightened firmly to engage the leakproof seal, but avoid overtightening, which can stress the threads over time.
