• How do I prepare and change the filter in my Brita® products?

  You’re just a few simple steps from enjoying great-tasting Brita® filtered water.

  Brita Pitchers and Dispenser Filters:
  

  1. Wash hands, then remove filter from bag.
  2. Hand-wash pitcher system periodically with a mild detergent (no abrasive cleaners). Rinse well. Do not wash in dishwasher.
  3. Brita® standard filters require a 15-second rinse prior to insertion. (Brita® Longlast™ does not require this.)
  4. Insert filter into reservoir by lining up groove in filter with notch in reservoir. Press firmly for a tight seal. Fill the reservoir with cold tap water. Discard your first three pitchers of filtered water, or use to water plants.
  5. Set up your pitcher’s electronic indicator. If using a blue Longlast filter follow enclosed instructions using the sticker provided.

  Stream Brita Pitcher and Filters:
  

  1. Flush your new Brita Stream filter with cold water for 15 seconds.
  2. Insert filter into filter cage with blue ring facing up. Press filter until it clicks.
  3. Install filter cage onto lid with a firm twist.
  4. Activate electronic indicator. Fill pitcher and enjoy great-tasting water.

  Brita® Bottle Filters:
  

  • Sport Bottles:
    
    1. Remove filter from filter housing.
    2. Push new filter firmly into housing.
    3. Unscrew cap and fill bottle with cold tap water. Tighten cap firmly.
    4. Squeeze one full bottle of water through the filter to activate before use.
  • Hard Sided Bottles:
    
    1. Rinse filter under running water for 15 seconds.
    2. Place new filter into housing and press down firmly until filter is flush with straw.
    3. Align lid and straw in unlocked position, then rotate straw to lock.

  Brita Faucet Filters:
  

  1. Wash hands with soap and water, then remove Brita® filter from bag.
  2. Flush Brita® Faucet system for 5 minutes to activate the filter and remove any carbon. 
  3. The 100-gallon Brita® filter life begins after the flushing process.

• What are micron ratings and why doesn’t Brita have them?

  A micron rating is a measurement for quantifying the ability of a filter to remove contaminants of a particular size. Brita® filters use technology that cannot be effectively measured with a micron rating.

  Brita® filters are not intended to purify water. Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection. Individuals requiring water of special microbiological purity should follow the advice of their doctor or local health officials regarding the use and consumption of their tap water and Brita® filtered water.

• How do Brita® Bottle filters remove substances from tap water?

  The standard Brita® filters have a sieve and bottom filter mesh that screen out larger particulate matter from the water. Activated carbon granules act like a sponge. An Ion Exchange Resin acts like a magnet to attract and hold the contaminants.

  Brita® Stream™ filters have a dual-layer innovative carbon form that provides a large surface area to act like a sponge to adsorb contaminants.

  Brita® Longlast filters have a patented pleated media embedded with proprietary active filtering agents that provides a large surface area to reduce contaminates for 120 gallons of water.

  And the Brita® bottle filter removes substances by passing the water through a carbon filter element designed to remove specific substances under low pressure. The bottle filter contains a proprietary blend of activated carbon and a binder that holds all the ingredients together. Water passes through a porous filter where chlorine (taste and odor) is adsorbed and broken down on the surface of the activated carbon.

  Lastly, the Brita® faucet mount filter uses water pressure to force water through a small carbon block and nonwoven. The nonwoven removes sediment and the block structure removes smaller contaminants including cyst. Water contact with the carbon block allows for the adsorption and trapping of contaminants.

• What happens if I fill the reservoir above the Max Fill line?

  Avoid filling above the MAX FILL line. The purpose of this line is to help you avoid overfilling the reservoir, which can cause water to spill into the handle and leak out of the pitcher.

• How do I attach my Brita® Faucet Filtration System?

  1. Support the bottom of the filter system with one hand.

  2. Align the insert groove on the lower part of the cartridge with the Filter

  Replacement Indicator at the front of the filter cup.

  3. Insert the filter cartridge into the filter cup until a “click” is heard. Do not force the filter cartridge into the system base. Inserting the new filter cartridge automatically resets and activates the electronic Filter Replacement Indicator.

  4. A green signal will flash, indicating that the filter is engaged.

  

• Where can I find product support information for my Infinity Pitcher?

  You can find answers to frequently asked questions on the Pitcher Support page. If you don’t find the information you need, send us an email or call 1-800-24-BRITA Monday–Friday 9 a.m–5:30 p.m. EST.

• Where can I buy a Brita® Filter?

  Please see our complete list of retailers, or purchase online.

• Why does the water flow differently through different filters?

  The Longlast Filter utilizes a different type of filtration technology that requires water to flow through the sides of the filter, instead of the bottom. The Stream™ Filter is designed to filter water as you pour — it’s our fastest pitcher filter yet.

• How do I read and reset my filter change indicator?

  The filter change indicator is designed to make it easy to know when it’s time to replace your filter. A green blinking light indicates that the filter is good. A yellow light indicates the filter should be replaced soon, while a red light blink indicates the filter should be replaced. Filter performance is not certified after 40 gallons. Changing your filter regularly helps ensure you have healthier*, great-tasting water.

  Reset your filter change indicator each time you replace your filter:

  1. To reset, press the “RESET” button (on some models called the “STATUS” button) below the lights on the indicator.
  2. Release the button when the green light blinks.
  3. Open the Fill Lid completely. ALWAYS fill the reservoir with water all the way to the provided “Max Fill” line. Close the Fill Lid. Note, the “max fill” line is on the Volumetric fill models only.
  4. On the Electronic or Volumetric fill models, the indicator light will blink after every time you fill the reservoir and close the Fill Lid. On volumetric pour models the indicator light will blink after every time you pour from the pitcher.
  5. After 100% of filter life is used (40 gallons), the red light will blink, indicating the filter should be replaced. Replace the filter and reset the indicator (see step 1).

  

  *Certified to reduce copper. Substances reduced may not be in all users’ water.

• What does it mean to be certified?

  A “Certified” Brita product means it has been tested by an accredited third party to meet the performance set by NSF/ANSI Standards.

• Care & Maintenance

  How do I clean my Brita® Faucet Filter?

  If your faucet system hasn’t been used for several days, wet and reactivate the system’s filter by running water through the filter for 30 seconds.

• What should I avoid with my Brita® Water Bottle Filter?

  Hot water:

  • Don’t filter water that is over 100°F/38°C. Hot water may release some contaminants from your tap water and can severely diminish the system’s filtration abilities. If this happens, you should replace your filter.

  Well water:

  • Don’t fill your Brita® Filtration Bottle with well water that isn’t regularly tested to be microbiologically safe. Filters are designed for use only with municipally treated tapwater or well water that is regularly tested.

• What should I do if my product breaks or cracks?

  Although they’re built to last, Brita® products can crack or break. The good news is that Brita® can send you the replacement part you need, including pitcher lids,reservoirs and bodies, as covered under your Brita® warranty, Please call a customer service representative at 1-800-24-BRITA for information.
