Why is my bottle leaking?

We know—leaks are frustrating. But don’t worry, it’s usually easy to fix. Your air up® bottle is designed to be leak-free when used the right way. Here’s how to make sure everything’s working as it should:


✅When drinking:

  • Always drink upright Your bottle works like a straw—if you tilt it, water can leak from the mouthpiece or pressure valve.

  • Always keep the pod on Drinking without a pod affects the airflow and can cause you to get too much air with each sip.


👜 When carrying your bottle:

  • Keep the pod on the mouthpiece

  • Close the lid properly

Your bottle is only fully sealed when both the pod is attached and the lid is closed. Without the lid, the pressure system stays open and water can escape—especially if the bottle tips or shakes. To carry safely: Pod on + lid closed = leak-proof Using a tumbler? Make sure to remove the straw before carrying it to ensure it's leak-free on the go.
