Bought a used FX6, and a broken O ring fell out

[JBGood]

This came out of the canister while I was cleaning it. The o ring in the two hose connection point nozzles are in tact. The spigot at the bottom of the canister closes and holds water. What else could it be from? It’s currently running in a filled sink and sounds right with no leaks.

Hose clip included for size reference.

It’s an o ring from the top of the filter where the hose connects….. found where it’s missing.

You can take the O ring to a hardware store or home improvement store. Either one should carry that size O ring.

I would take a close look at the other o rings for possible replacement

Also get some silicone grease if you haven't already

Also get some silicone grease if you haven't already

that’s great advice!
It’s good practice to lube up all o-rings on a canister filter
