Most problems with Verro are caused by a dirty or clogged filter bag. Verro
depends on water flowing freely through the filter bag to operate at peak
efficiency. If the filter bag gets clogged, Verro will not be able to clean as
effectively and may not move as well. The fine filter bag can trap particles as
small as two microns across and can be clogged by particles too small to
see. If rinsing the filter bag by hand with a hose doesn’t solve the problem, try
machine-washing it in cold water. Don’t use detergent, fabric softener, bleach,
or any other additive. Do not machine dry the filter bag.
If you find the fine filter bag gets clogged too quickly, consider using the mesh
bag instead.
Always turn off Verro’s Power Supply and unplug it before troubleshooting
any problem.
