The felt strip is meant to go on the top, it's to distribute the water evenly across the panel. You installed the panel upside-down.

THANK YOU! Now that you mention it, the amazon link I posted shows it with the felt on top in the pic as well lol. I thought it was supposed to be at the bottom due to how the original filter was in it originally.
