Overview
An on/off lever on the filter body switches the tap between filtered and unfiltered water. The PUR Plus clicks onto a faucet with an external aerator, and a light signals when the cartridge needs changing.
Switching at the lever means the cartridge is used only when drinking water is wanted. The limitation is faucet fit, since the data names only sinks with external aerators.
Who it's for
Apartment dwellers and families who fill glasses and pitchers at one kitchen sink get the most from the click-on design. People who want whole-house filtering, or filtered water at several taps, need a different system.
Pros and cons
- Installs by hand, no tools
- Lever switches filtered and plain water
- Change filter indicator light
- Reduces lead and chlorine
- Needs a sink with an external aerator
- Cartridge change due every few months
- Supply water limited by a TDS ceiling
Performance notes
Water passes through the cartridge by ion exchange, the purification method listed, and cartridge life is stated both in gallons and in months. The lever sends water either through the filter or straight out, so filtered volume depends on how often it is switched. A supply above the stated TDS ceiling is outside the rated range.
