Increase water flosser capacity

I am trying to increase the capacity of my water flosser by using the jug to fill the flosser.



The problem is that it overflows it.



I tried restricting the flow but no luck.



Lowering the height did not help either.



Any ideas,



Andy


Water tries to seek the same level. Out a shut off valve and fill as needed by opening the valve.

Get rid of the tanks.  Just install a dedicated water outlet with water pressure reducing valve and plumb your flosser wand to that.

Why do you need a big jug?

That looks like one of those tanks that are used in dry cleaner businesses for their steam irons.

To minimize fills. I use 20 oz. per use.

Remove the flosser tank and plumb the hose directly to the pump input. I'd lower the big tank too.

Sometimes, what seemed like a good idea at the time turns into more hassle than it's worth.

Why mess up the whole bathroom? I use those small disposable brushes to floss. They get under bridges and tight spaces. I was never happy with a Water Pic.

There's no mess.

Water Pics get so much more food out that brushing and flossing can't.

Been a while since I had a water pic and still needed a little extra. The little brushes I mention will get between your teeth and under bridges. I agree that brushing alone does not cut it.
