Pur water filter replacement wet?

water filter
fran mullins asked:


I opened a Pur water filter replacement, and there was some water inside. Are they usually wet? I remember them being pretty dry and you had to soak them. Do you think moisture got into the package? There was enough water for there to be droplets on the filter and package.

    They are supposed to be that moist. If they were bone-dry, it would take longer soaking them to get them ready to use.

    Always run 1 jug-ful of water thru and use for watering plants, etc, as there will be carbon ‘dust’ particles in the first batch.

    I still soak the moist filters, but usually only for an hour or two, as opposed to a ‘dry’ filter, that needs to soak about 12 hours.

    Are you sure it was water? I wouldn’t use it but, notify them and either bring it or send it back. Yes, it should be dry.
