How to use an external water source?
The xBloom Original features an internal pump, allowing you to choose between using the included water tank or connecting to an external water source with 1/4" OD tubing. For non-pressurized sources like a 5-gallon jug, simply attach the tube (up to 19 inches long) directly to the machine. For integration into a pressurized system from your home or filter system, please purchase the Inline Regulator ($129) to seamless plumbing without risking damage to your machine, contact us at support@xbloom.com and we'll bundle this adaptor together for free.
Whether from the built-in water tank or directly hooked to your water system with an external pipe, enjoy the flexibility to use it whenever and however you prefer.
