Remember when water gushed out like a tiny waterfall? Now it drips like a grumpy turtle. Low pressure is a classic cry for help.
Sediment and minerals have built a little fortress inside your filter. They block the pathways. Your water is now negotiating passage with a bribed mole.
But wait—don’t confuse this with aerator gunk. Check the screen first. If it’s clean and flow is still pathetic, your filter is clogged and done.
Your Ice Looks Weird
Ice cubes don’t lie. If they come out cloudy, chunky, or smelling like last week’s fish, guess what? Your filter failed. Ice is just frozen truth.
Minerals and impurities concentrate during freezing. Clear ice = happy filter. Foggy ice = replacement alarm.
Bonus weirdness: Ice that melts into a weird, slimy film? That’s your filter’s polite way of saying, “I’m dead.”
