Common questions
- Which water filter fits the GROHE Blue Professional L-spout?
- The GROHE Blue Professional L-spout takes the GROHE Blue filter S-Size 40404001 (600 litres). GROHE's earlier Professional starter kits came with the S-Size filter; the current kits come without one and GROHE lists six that fit. Buy the type already in your system unless you change the setting on the cooler or app.
- How often should I replace the water filter in my GROHE Blue Professional L-spout?
- Every 12 months. Flow slows and performance drops off as the filter fills up, so it's worth doing on time.
- Where can I buy the 40404001 in Australia?
- We link to 1 Australian seller for the 40404001; the seller's page shows the current price.
- How do I fit the 40404001 in a GROHE Blue Professional L-spout?
- No tools, a few minutes: 5 steps, listed on this page with the replacement video where the maker has one.
- What happens if I don't change it?
- The carbon stops reducing chlorine taste and odour and the flow from the tap slows as the cartridge clogs; a boiling-water tap with a scale-reducing filter builds scale in its tank faster.
- How do I reset the reminder?
- Reset the filter capacity after the change: on the cooler (Blue Home, Professional) or in the GROHE app, or on the flow meter or filter timer under the sink (Blue Pure). If you change filter type, set the new type and water hardness too.
