These universal filter cartridges are designed to enhance your daily hydration experience by delivering purer, better-tasting water directly from your Brita Classic jug. Each cartridge works by passing tap water through a multi-stage filtration process that reduces common impurities such as chlorine, lead, copper, and limescale. This results in water that is not only more enjoyable to drink but also ideal for brewing tea and coffee, as it helps prevent scale buildup in appliances.
Activated Carbon: Granular activated carbon reduces chlorine and organic impurities, which can affect taste and odor.
Ion-Exchange Resin: This component targets heavy metals like lead and copper, and reduces limescale, softening the water.
Daily Drinking Water: Enjoy refreshingly clean water throughout the day.
Cooking: Use filtered water for cooking to improve the flavor of food and ensure cleaner ingredients.
Hot Beverages: Coffee and tea will taste better, and your kettle will be protected from limescale.
Plant Care: Some indoor plants benefit from filtered water, especially those sensitive to chlorine.
Expect a noticeable difference in water clarity and taste from the first use. For best results, always ensure the cartridge is properly installed and replaced as recommended.
Getting started with your new filter cartridges is simple, but proper setup, understanding compatibility, and basic care will ensure optimal performance.
Preparation: Unpack one individually sealed cartridge. You may notice some carbon dust; this is normal.
Soak (Optional but Recommended): Submerge the new cartridge in a bowl of cold tap water for about 5-10 minutes to remove any air bubbles.
Insert: Remove the old cartridge from your Brita Classic jug. Insert the new cartridge firmly into the funnel until it clicks into place or sits securely.
Flush: Fill the jug with cold tap water and discard the first two full pitchers of filtered water. This helps to rinse out any loose carbon particles.
Enjoy: Your jug is now ready to provide fresh, filtered water. Remember to reset your jug's filter change indicator, if it has one.
These cartridges are only compatible with Brita Classic water filter jugs. They are designed as direct replacements for the original Brita Classic filter. They are not compatible with Brita Maxtra, Brita Maxtra+ (Plus), or any other water filter jug systems.
Storage: Store unused, individually sealed cartridges in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and strong odors.
Disposal: Used filter cartridges should be disposed of according to your local recycling guidelines. Some municipalities offer specific programs for filter recycling.
Jug Cleaning: Regularly clean your water filter jug with warm soapy water (excluding the filter cartridge) to prevent mold or bacterial growth.
Replacement: Replace the filter cartridge approximately every 4 weeks or after filtering 100 liters of water, whichever comes first, to ensure continued optimal performance.
