FAQs

Is the bottle truly odor-free?

The bottle is made from LDPE plastic that is virtually odorless, designed to not impart a taste or smell to your water. However, residual odors can sometimes occur with any plastic product, which can usually be resolved with thorough cleaning.

Can I put hot liquids in this bottle?

This bottle is not designed for hot liquids. It is intended for cold or room temperature beverages. Using hot liquids may deform the plastic and damage the bottle.

How do I ensure the bottle is properly sealed?

Ensure the large screw lid is tightened firmly and that the push-pull valve is fully pressed down. Listen for a secure click when closing the valve.

What is the weight of the bottle?

The Acid Bottle Flow weighs approximately 74 grams.

Can I freeze this bottle?

It is not recommended to freeze the bottle, as liquids expand when frozen and could damage the plastic or seals.

What does BPA-free mean for me?

BPA-free means the plastic does not contain Bisphenol A, a chemical that has raised health concerns. Using BPA-free products ensures your drinking water is free from this potential contaminant.

Troubleshooting

Bottle leaks when closed.

Ensure the push-pull valve is fully pushed down and that the lid is securely screwed on. Check the lid's seal for any debris.

Water flow is weak.

Pull the valve further out to open it fully. Check the spout and valve for any blockages, such as dirt or residue, and clean them.

Plastic odor persists.

Wash thoroughly with warm, soapy water. Leaving the bottle to air out for an extended period in a well-ventilated area can also help dissipate any residual odor.

Valve is difficult to operate.

Ensure the valve is clean and free of any obstructions. Gently wiggle the valve while pulling or pushing to loosen it if it feels stiff.
