How often should I change my Brita filter?

You should change your Brita filter approximately every 40 gallons or about every two months, depending on your water consumption. Regularly changing the filter is crucial for maintaining the quality of the water. A filter indicator on the unit helps monitor when a change is due, but it’s good practice to keep track of your usage based on your household's consumption. For households with heavier water use or higher contaminant levels, more frequent changes may be necessary. Many users enjoy the peace of mind that comes with filtered water, knowing they’re drinking something cleaner and healthier. Pro tip: Set a reminder on your phone to replace the filter every two months. Consideration: If you find yourself using bottled water more frequently, the filter change may become unnecessary.
