What this jug is like to live with
What the Aquaphor Maxfor+ actually removes
Taken from the manufacturer’s own reduction claims, with the evidence level stated.
Reduces
- Chlorine taste and smell
- Limescale and hard water
- Lead
- Copper
- Organic impurities
Does not reduce
Listed because it is the more useful half. Every cartridge on the market reduces chlorine taste; what separates them is what they leave behind.
The manufacturer states the reduction. No independent verification is offered. Common on European jugs, which are generally not NSF-certified at all because NSF is a North American scheme.

Aquaphor Amethyst questions
Which filter fits the Aquaphor Amethyst?
The Aquaphor Amethyst takes the Aquaphor Maxfor+ cartridge, which is what it ships with.
No other cartridge family fits this jug.
How often does the Aquaphor Amethyst need a new cartridge?
The Aquaphor Maxfor+ is rated at 350 litres (92 gal) · 6 weeks. That figure assumes average water — in a hard-water area the ion exchange resin is exhausted sooner, sometimes considerably sooner.
Volume is the honest measure rather than the calendar. A household of four reaches the rated throughput far quicker than one person does.
