FAQs and Documents

How do I use my Reservoir Cleaning Kit to clean my reservoir?

Our Reservoir Cleaning Kit comes with two brushes: one long, thin brush and one shorter, wider brush. These are used to scrub different parts of your hydration reservoir.


The long, skinny brush is made to clean your drink tube. Keeping a finger in the hoop at the end of the brush, you can use the brush on the opposite end to scrub the inside of your drink tube. Note: When detaching your drink tube to clean, it's easiest to access the interior of your drink tube through the end with the bite valve.


The shorter, wider brush is used for scrubbing the interior of your reservoir. Simply hold on to the obvious handle, and use the bristled end to scrub at any visible dirt or residue inside your reservoir.

How do I install my Bite Valve Cover?

First, remove your HyFLO™ Bite Valve from your shutoff valve.Next, insert the base of the Bite Valve Cover over the tube, and push it all the way down.Open the top of the Bite Valve Cover, and re-insert your HyFLO Bite Valve onto the shutoff valve with the base of the Bite Valve Cover between the bite valve and the shutoff valve.Last, close the top of the Bite Valve Cover. Voila!

How do I use my Big Zip™ EVO Filter Connector Kit?

The Big Zip™ EVO Connector Kit is a nifty accessory that allows you to filter directly from your GravityWorks™ into your Big Zip EVO without ever having to remove your reservoir from your pack.


To do so, you first need to remove your drink tube from your reservoir via the quick-disconnect. Then, plug the connection point on the connector kit's hose directly into the quick-disconnect point (you will hear a click). Next, attach the connector kit's hose to the base of your GravityWorks filter cartridge. Let gravity do the rest, as you're now on your way to clean, taste-free hydration.

Keeping the bladder, tube and

"Keeping the bladder, tube and hydration system clean is critical for years of trusted use in the back country yet. ortho g worse than arriving at the trailhead with mold i. the tube. simple design and works well"

— Rob I. (5/5)

Effective.

"Worked great, effectively cleaned the gunk that had formed in my reservoir tube."

— Scott D. (5/5)

Brushes not flexible enough

"Brush doesn't access every crevasse in the reservoir nor is it long enough. Tube brush not long enough for the hose."

— Ed R. (3/5)

Brush does not fit inside the hoser platypus bladder!!!!!

"This does not fit inside my hoser platypus bladder. The description for this product should tell which bladders this item is and isn't with."

— Francisco P. (1/5)

Does a good job cleaning

"Does a good job cleaning my reservoir. Nothing fancy just does what it’s supposed to do, well."

— Todd B. (5/5)

It's great, cleans my reservoir,

"It's great, cleans my reservoir, would be better in a carrying case than those small things that keep It's shape"

— Ella C. (4/5)

Small Brush Broke Immediately

"The larger brush used to clean the reservoir seems robust enough, but the coiled brush bent and then snapped off during my first time using it. I figured this might be a defect but I submitted a return request and have not heard anything for almost 2 months. It seems like most kitchen brushes could be used for the main reservoir so without the coiled brush I would recommend buying something from your local grocery store."

— Trevor P. (1/5)

One brush worked well, the other, not so much

"The brush to clean the hose worked well, but the brush to clean the reservoir itself didn't actually reach into the corners of the reservoir, so it was ineffective at getting it clean."

— Ingrid S. (4/5)

Perfect for cleaning ALL of the hydration bags.

"Does exactly the description"

— Jason L. (5/5)

Perfect for keeping kit clean

"kEEPS KIT CLEAN"

— James (5/5)
