Jura CLARIS Smart filter (part 71793) water filter
The Jura CLARIS Smart is a chipped filter. The machine reads the chip and rejects anything it does not recognise, so an ordinary replacement will not work. 21 machines in our list use it, all from Jura. Other brands do sell chipped copies, but they are not reliably accepted.

How often should I change it?
Every 2 months.
| Your water | Change it | Who says so |
|---|---|---|
| Soft, Moderate or hard | every 2 months | Jura does |
| Very hard | every 6 weeks | We do |
The manufacturer gives a limit like "2 months or a set number of litres, whichever comes first". That is a maximum, not a target — so we never tell you to leave one in for longer, however soft your water is. Hard water uses up the softening part of the filter faster, which is why we suggest changing it sooner in very hard areas. That shorter figure is our suggestion, not the manufacturer's.
Not sure how hard your water is? Your water company publishes it on their website, usually under "water quality" and searchable by postcode.
Can I buy a cheaper version of this filter?
Not a dependable one, no.
This filter has a chip in it, and the machine checks for that chip before it will run its filter cycle. Filters it does not recognise get rejected.
Other brands do sell chipped copies, and some of them are accepted by some machines. But it is inconsistent, and a filter your machine refuses is money wasted. For these machines the manufacturer's own is the only reliable option.
