Is the water stream when using the PUR water faucet mount supposed to be very slow?

Question

I purchased the plastic 3 stage filtration faucet mount today for $25 to use in my kitchen, and the water stream is slow as molasses. It's also very narrow. Everything seems to be hooked up fine. Is the barrow water stream normal? It will take forever to fill up a gallon bottle of water at this rate. When I turn the mount up and off, and run unfiltered water the flow is normal. Thanks

Answer 1

The water is slow because it has to go through all those filters and they cause a restriction. If your water pressure is low this even makes the water even slower

Answer 2

I have the brita pitcher because the faucet attachment seems clunky and bulky for my sink space. the brita filters make the water smell and taste clean, we have pretty hard water around here. as a sidenote, the Culligan pitcher filter refills fit the brita pitcher, both use charcoal filtration, and they cost a bit less to replace. they say to change the filters every 6 to 8 weeks but I go 5 or 6 because I use tons of water.

Answer 3

There is one on the kitchen faucet in the house we recently bought and it is very slow.
I don't even use it.

Answer 4

yes, extremely slow.
