Brita Elite is certified to reduce more contaminants than ZeroWater and PUR**.

• How often should I change my filter?

  Replace your Brita Elite™ Filter every 120 gallons, or about every 6 months for most households.* If you have hard water, you may need to change filters more often. When you install a new filter, use your built-in electronic filter indicator or sticker calendar indicator so you’ll know exactly when to replace it. See how often to change other types of Brita® filters here.

• How do I prepare and change the filter in my Brita® pitcher or dispenser?
  1. Insert the Brita Elite™ Filter into the reservoir by lining up the groove in the filter with the notch in the reservoir. Press firmly for a tight seal.
  2. Add cold tap water. For pitchers, discard your first three containers worth of filtered water; for dispensers, discard your first dispenser of filtered water (or use it to water plants).
