Why Customers Call Brita
If you have time to do a bit of reading before you call Brita, we recommend you read over some of our problem-specific articles.
Yes, the Brita water filter is BPA-free. Brita prides itself on producing high-quality water filters that are safe for use. BPA, also known as bisphenol A, is a chemical that can be found in certain plastics and can leach into beverages or food. However, Brita has ensured that their water filters are free from BPA, providing customers with a safer and healthier water filtration solution. By using advanced technology and materials, Brita ensures that the water filters effectively reduce impurities without compromising the purity of the water. With a BPA-free certification, customers can trust the Brita water filter to provide clean and delicious-tasting water.
Yes, Brita water filters are effective in removing some fluoride from water. While the primary purpose of Brita filters is to reduce chlorine, odors, and improve taste, they are equipped with activated carbon filters that can also reduce the levels of certain impurities, including fluoride. However, it's crucial to note that Brita filters are not specifically designed to remove fluoride, and their effectiveness in this regard may vary. To achieve optimal fluoride removal, it is recommended to look for a filter specifically designed for fluoride reduction or consider alternative water filtration methods. Brita filters, while reducing some fluoride, are unable to eliminate all traces of it from the water.
No, you should not put your Brita pitcher in the dishwasher. The dishwasher can expose the pitcher and its components to excessive heat, which could cause them to warp or become damaged. Additionally, the high-pressure water jets in the dishwasher may damage the filter, compromising its effectiveness. To clean your Brita pitcher, simply remove the filter and wash the pitcher and lid with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and allow them to dry before reassembling. Regular cleaning will help maintain the pitcher's performance and extend its lifespan. Remember to replace the filter as recommended to ensure optimal water filtration.

As a last, sometimes only, resort- Brita customer service can be accessed through their website.
