No reminder on this item.

If your unit comes with an Electronic Filter Change Indicator it will tell you when to change it. If it doesn't have the electronic feature, Brita gives new registrants a coupon good for up to $2 off toward a filter purchase when they sign up on their site (http://www.brita.com/your-brita/filter-reminders/) and will send personalized filter reminders. If you prefer to have your reminder automatically inserted into your Outlook/iCal calendar you’ll be able to download the reminder directly to your calendar (most computer calendaring software is supported) after you register.
You can opt out from filter reminders at anytime.
