How often should I change my filter?
Replace your Brita® Original Filter every 40 gallons, or about every 2 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?
- Rinse your Brita® Original Filter with cold water for 15 seconds.
- Insert the filter into the reservoir by lining up the groove in the filter with the ridge in the reservoir. Press firmly for a tight seal.
- Add cold tap water. For pitchers, discard your first three pitchers of filtered water; for dispensers, discard your first dispenser of filtered water (or use it to water plants).
