Can I use hot water with my Brita filter?

Asked a year ago
No, it is not recommended to use hot water with your Brita filter. Brita filters are designed to work with cold tap water, and using hot water can damage the filter and reduce its effectiveness. The heat can compromise the filter's ability to remove impurities and contaminants from the water. It is important to keep in mind that Brita filters are not suitable for filtering hot water, as the temperature can also cause the plastic components to deform or release harmful chemicals. To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your Brita filter, it is best to only use cold water when using the Brita system.
