Does the Brita Elite fit my faucet?

It fits standard fixed kitchen faucets with a removable aerator. It does not fit pull-out, pull-down or spray-style faucets, so check yours before buying.

How often do I change the filter?

Brita rates each cartridge for about four months of typical use, or roughly three changes a year. The indicator light tells you when it's time.

Yes. It is certified to reduce 99% of lead along with more than 60 other contaminants, though what's in your water varies by location.

Is it better than a Brita pitcher?

It filters on demand with no filling or fridge space, and it covers more contaminants than basic pitcher filters. A pitcher still suits people who want cold water stored ahead.

The faucet-mount system and two filter cartridges. You may need the included adapter to match your faucet threads.

Will it slow my water pressure?

Expect somewhat lower flow than unfiltered tap, and more so as the cartridge ages. That's normal for faucet filters.

Our take on the Brita Elite Chrome Faucet Water Filter System

The Brita Elite is a faucet-mount filter that uses a carbon block to cut chlorine taste and odor and certified to reduce more than 60 contaminants, including 99% of lead. It has two spray options and a filter indicator light, and Brita rates each cartridge for about four months of typical use. It suits renters and anyone who wants filtered water straight from the tap without a pitcher or under-sink install. Against pitcher filters it wins on convenience and contaminant coverage, but it only fits standard fixed faucets, not pull-out or spray-head models, and it takes up aerator space.
