FAQs
How often should I replace the Maxfor+ filter cartridge?

Can I use tap water directly from the hot tap?
No, this filter jug is designed for cold tap water only. Using hot water can damage the filter cartridge and affect its performance.
How do I clean the AQUAPHOR Glass Grey Water Filter Jug?
The glass jug body can be washed by hand with mild dish soap and warm water, or it can be placed on the top rack of your dishwasher. The lid and funnel should only be washed by hand.
What contaminants does the Maxfor+ filter remove?
The Maxfor+ filter effectively reduces chlorine, limescale, pesticides, heavy metals such as lead, mercury, and copper, as well as microplastics.
Is the entire jug dishwasher safe?
No, only the glass jug body is dishwasher safe. The lid and the funnel should be washed separately by hand to maintain their integrity and function.
What are the environmental benefits of using this jug?
By using this filter jug, you significantly reduce plastic waste by eliminating the need for single-use plastic bottles. It is estimated to help reduce approximately 1600 plastic bottles per year. Additionally, reducing limescale helps household appliances last longer.
Where can I get replacement filters?
Replacement AQUAPHOR Maxfor+ filter cartridges can be purchased from authorized retailers and online stores. You can also search for Aquaphor Water Filters to find information about their recycling program.
Troubleshooting
Water filters very slowly.
Ensure the filter cartridge is properly seated in the funnel. If the filter is new, it may need a brief period to fully saturate. Try soaking the filter in cold water for 15 minutes before inserting it.
Water tastes unusual after filtering.
Ensure you followed the filter preparation steps correctly before first use. Replace the filter cartridge if it's older than 60 days or has filtered 200 litres. Check that no un-filtered water has been dispensed.
Jug leaks.
Check that the filter is correctly inserted into the funnel and that the funnel is properly seated in the jug opening. Ensure the lid is securely closed.
Filter life counter not working.
This jug features a battery-free counter. Ensure it is activated correctly according to the initial setup instructions. If it remains inactive, manual tracking of the filter's replacement date is recommended.
