PUR Plus Water Filter Replacement for Pitchers & Dispensers, 6-Month Supply, 3 Count, Blue (PPF951K3)
The PUR Plus Water Filter Replacement set includes three blue replacement cartridges for compatible PUR Plus and Beautiful by PUR pitcher and dispenser systems. Model PPF951K3 uses PUR’s 3-in-1 filtration technology and is designed for regular filter changes over a six-month period.
Overview
This three-count replacement-filter set is intended for PUR Plus water pitchers and dispensers. PUR identifies the cartridges as genuine replacements and states that they are the only filters certified to reduce chemical and physical substances when used with PUR Plus or Beautiful by PUR systems.
Each cartridge is designed for up to two months or 40 gallons of regular use. The listed compatible purifier models include PUR CR-1100C and PUR DS-1800Z.
Key Features
PUR’s 3-in-1 filtration technology is WQA certified to reduce lead and other chemical and physical substances. The filters are also NSF certified to reduce microplastics, chlorine, mercury, copper, zinc, and other substances associated with unwanted taste and odor.
PUR states that this filter reduces three times more chemical and physical substances than Brita’s leading pitcher filter, identified in the product information as the Brita OB03. The cartridges use a LockFit design intended to secure the filter in place and help prevent unfiltered water from mixing with filtered water.
Real-World Performance
The stated filtration focus includes lead reduction as well as reduction of chlorine, microplastics, mercury, copper, zinc, and substances that may affect drinking water’s taste and odor. Performance claims are supported by the listed NSF and WQA certifications.
Actual results can depend on the water entering the pitcher or dispenser and on using the filter with a compatible system. Following the stated replacement interval is important for maintaining the intended filtration schedule.
Ease of Use and Maintenance
PUR describes the cartridges as easy to change, with the LockFit design allowing the replacement filter to lock into compatible PUR Plus and Beautiful by PUR systems. The set includes three replacement filters.
Maintenance consists primarily of changing each filter after two months or 40 gallons of use, whichever comes first according to the product guidance. Users should confirm that their pitcher or dispenser is compatible before installation.
Pros and Trade-Offs
Pros include NSF and WQA certifications, a stated lead-reduction capability, and coverage of several substances linked to taste and odor. The three-filter pack aligns with the listed six-month replacement schedule, and the LockFit design is intended to limit bypass by unfiltered water.
The filters are specifically intended for compatible PUR Plus and Beautiful by PUR pitcher and dispenser systems, so they are not presented as universal replacements. Their maintenance routine also requires a filter change at the stated two-month or 40-gallon interval.
Who This Product Is For
This set is suited to households using a compatible PUR Plus or Beautiful by PUR pitcher or dispenser that want genuine replacement cartridges with NSF and WQA certification. It may be particularly relevant for users seeking stated reductions in lead, chlorine, microplastics, and other listed chemical and physical substances.
It is less suitable for people who need a replacement for an unsupported pitcher or dispenser model, or who do not plan to follow the recommended filter-change schedule.
