When should you replace the BOROUX Foundation Black filters?

The BOROUX Foundation Black filters have been designed to last for many years. However, we now live in a different era to that of just a few years ago. The number of pollutants has only increased, and they have become increasingly severe (think, for example, of PFAS or the significant rise in pharmaceutical residues, pesticides, etc.). This has a huge impact on the filters, meaning it is better to replace them a little sooner. We therefore recommend that you BOROUX Foundation Black filters Replace every 3 years at most, assuming average use and the use of tap water. If you use water from a different source, it is advisable to replace it sooner.
