We shall discuss these, along with corrective steps already taken by us and 'what you can do' to help your pot go on for a long time. Click on the links below:  

 
"Rusting" at the end where the spout meets the body
 

Why it can occur?
This is a complaint brought to our notice in the past. At the outset, we may state that the "best of steels" can experience corrosion at the welded joint seams due to a phenomenon called "capillary corrosion", more so in a warm chloride environment (such as warm salty water). It happens because the passivating layer that makes the steel stainless gets disturbed with welding.

  Remedy
 
 

What we have done:
A technique called pickling is universally employed to minimize such effects. We have now adopted this advanced technique in our manufacturing to help solve this problem. This is followed by an additional coating around the joint area to further strengthen such protection.

  What you should do:
 
  • Always rinse your pot with clean water to remove ALL salt residues from your pot. This is also important from a hygiene point of view.
  • Dry your pot with a towel cloth from the inside and outside after each use. Pay special attention to dry the following areas:
These measures should fully ensure that no rust like occurrence takes place.

Spout 'Breaking off'

In some rare cases, the spout of the pot may 'break off' or the pot may reach you with the spout separated. While we offer full replacement guarantee, you may like to know why this may occur and what we have done to minimize this.

Sometimes, the pickling and passivation process that is employed for the longevity of your neti pot, may render the joint weak. This can cause it to snap off or develop leaks in rare cases.

What we have done:

Recognizing this we have made the spouts thicker to adhere better with the pot surface. This has almost completely eliminated such cases. Still if it happens to you, just let us know on the Customer Support Form and we'll ensure immediate replacement.
