Product description Advice

The priming washer makes it easy to prime your Ultimate Star Filter® filters filters in a simple way if you don't have the starter or your tap isn't suitable for its use.

☑️ What does filter priming involve?

The filter media in Ultimate Star Filter® filters is made up of millions of micro-channels. Before they are used for the first time, or after a long period of inactivity, these micro-channels are filled with air. This air needs to be evacuated in a process known as ‘priming’. The purpose of this action is to ‘force out’ the air in the filter to replace it with water.

The priming washer adapts to many faucet spouts to implement this operation.

☑️ Compatible tap types

The priming washer is compatible with most taps if they have a flat base.

⚠️ If your tap is of the ‘showerhead’ type, you can easily unscrew the showerhead to apply the priming washer.
