Does this item require constant filling? And how does this item compare to your Ultimate Continuous Flow Deluxe Home Colonic Package?

If you want to do more than five gallons you would need to refill the container. Our continuous flow does allow you to do as many gallons as you would like without getting up the refill the container.

No. Fortunately, I had one. I would certainly make sure you get one, as it makes a huge difference in time spent filling.

I decided to give this a real test, to see how long it took between fillings. I filled it fully (12 Cups of water) at 9:10am on 02/12/14. I let it go until it go until it got to the point that the "water fountain" sounds got too loud. At the point of refilling, there was still 2 3/4 Cups of water in the basin. The refilling took place at 11:45p on 02/21/14. I have one cat, and I see him at the fountain fairly often. He is a bit on the smaller side, so that might have a factor on why there was such a long time between fillings. Hope this helps in your decision making!

The unit comes with everything needed to hook up the unit using two scenarios: Laundry room hookup using the laundry water source and drain, and Bathroom hookup using a toilet water source and toilet bowl waste receptacle. You may need additional materials for hooking up the system differently. There are two boxes of granules in the original package. One is for the initial filling, and the other is for maintaining the level in the bowl. It also comes with one cartridge of SaniSolution. For us, one SaniSolution and the one box of granules lasted three months on the auto-cat setting. We have two cats using the unit. You will need to purchase additional supplies later, but not at initial purchase. My practice is to keep a full box of granules and SaniSolution on hand, or to buy one of these supply items when I need to reach the minimum $25 purchase for super-saver shipping.

For me it works very good. I use it every morning. If you fill it half it takes a minute.

It is not really exact. You just fill it as needed. I typically fill it every week just to be sure it is full.

I removed about half of the fill for my wife and just a little less on mine. It comes down to personal preference. I save the extra fill in heavy duty zip lock bags so it will stay fresh incase I need to add some back.

Supposedly the Colpermin were stronger, but I found, after many months, that they did not always dissolve. I now use Pepogest and they seem to work well. Others may be ok, too. Just make sure they are enteric coated.

Yes, its actually a good idea to refill it once every couple months and very easy. Lay it on a big cutting board, lift up the opposite end of the cap, undo the cap and let it drain. Takes 1 minute. Then fill it back up with fresh water. Read the instructions on how much water to add or add water and weigh the Chillow, I think it should be around 3.3lbs but then again, check the instructions or website. Ps. Make sure the Foam Core inside does not bunch all up while draining. You can do this by holding both corners of the Chillow and holding on to the Foam. I no longer need neck surgery due to his pillow. :-)

I was filling mine with 8oz of water and Betadine which filled it up but as you get to the bottom of the liquid you do have to really squeeze the bulb. It didn't bother me as much because I had already used most of my solution anyway. I felt it got the job done and was easy to clean. Also not very big which is nice. Try filling it all the way up and just keep squeezing without letting too much air in. Hope this helps :)

Hi there I'm not the seller so you may want to asask them that question. I didn't notice and gelled filling with my mattress pad only the down alternative.

I originally used the regular digestive advantage then they came out with the intensive bowel. I switched because it seemed to fit my problems. I saw absolutely no difference between the two. I have continued to use the intensive bowel mainly because I can find it online in a box of 96 which is cheaper than I can find in town.

I get my capsules at amazon subscribe and save which is a good deal compared to CBTL's website . Thank you for your comment....I will try my machine again....it is a new machine and so I was trying to prime it....and no water came out. I tried mine about 10 times in 2 hours before I gave up. But I will try it again before I put it in the garage. And thanks for the tip on Bed Bath and Beyond.....they used to carry them at Target and I got a good deal when they closed the brand out there.

we actually bought capsules and filled them. It was pretty time consuming and messy. We also tried it in our protein shakes after the gym, that wasn't too bad either. I'd suggest mixing it in with your favorite beverage.

It is not supposed to need a refill. I think they have a lifetime guarantee. Get in touch with the company.

Well stated by previous reviewer! Yes, it's very easy to fill up. The trick is to restrain yourself from blowing too much air into it...in this case less is preferred. Also, if you take it with you to the movies, for example, please make a point of remembering it when you leave.

The filler is clean goosedown. If you have allergies then you may want man made fiberfill.
