For over 50 years, BRITA is world famous for water filter jugs and water optimisation. Australian household water from the tap is compliant and safe, but may contain chlorine, heavy metals and other sediments which can affect water taste, smell and clarity.

BRITA water filters are designed to:

• Reduce free and bound chlorine content if present.

• Reducing carbonate hardness and act as a “water softener” where hard water is present.

• Help filter out metals such as lead and copper which may be found from dirty or damaged mains.

All BRITA jugs are dishwasher-safe up to 50 degrees except for the lid and the filter change indicator. You must wash the lid carefully by hand.

This excludes the BRITA cask where all its components must be washed by hand.

Yes, all BRITA filter cartridges are safe, and are produced with high quality and safety standards. Each filter is made of food grade materials, and are harmless if accidentally consumed.

Store your BRITA jug with filtered water in a cool, dry place, like the fridge. Avoid exposing the BRITA jug to direct sunlight. BRITA filtered water must be ideally consumed within one to two days.

BRITA recommends replacing MAXTRA+ filters every 4 weeks, or every 150 litres of use for best results.
