What customers say
“I am using this filter at home. We are having around 6 washing cycles a week (9kg load) and it just works perfectly! Easy to install, easy to use and easy to replace the cartridge.”
“It's crazy how much plastic it collects and the new version 2.0 is even easier to use.”
“Its an extremely simple and easy to setup filter system that's pretty much plug and play. I feel a hell of a lot better about using my washing machine now.”
Before you order
Is the PlanetCare 2.0 filter compatible with my washing machine?
YES! Our filter works with all washing machine types: front-loaders, top-loaders, HE models, standard machines, and washer-dryer combos.
Note: With washer-dryer combos, cartridges may need replacing more often than the usual 30 washes due to higher workload.

How do I install the filter?
No plumber needed!
Installation is easier than assembling IKEA furniture - anyone can do it in about 10 minutes (plus 24 hours for the adhesive to set).
You only need the washing machine drain hose – no hot or cold water inlet connection is needed.
Watch our installation video (HERE) or download our quick-start guide (HERE) for step-by-step instructions. It's truly DIY-friendly!
Where should I install the filter? What if I don't have enough space?
The filter is incredibly flexible!
Install it outside your washing machine, connected to the drain hose. You can place it:
• On the side or back of your washing machine
• On a nearby cupboard or shelf
• On the wall
• On the floor
• Under a sink
• Anywhere your drain hose can reach
Tight on space? No problem!
The filter is compact, making it perfect for small laundry areas, closets, or tight corners.
See installation examples (HERE) or contact us at hello@planetcare.org - we love solving space challenges!
What are the filter dimensions?
Height × Width × Depth:
353 mm × 126 mm × 111 mm
(13.9" × 4.96" × 4.37")
That's roughly the size of a large cereal box.
How much space do I need for installation?
• 13 cm (5") of space beside your washing machine
• 60 cm (24") height clearance above the filter for comfortable cartridge changes
Don't have traditional installation space?
Contact us! The filter works in virtually any position - floor, tucked in corners. Most laundry areas have more options than you'd think.
How does the return system (Closed Loop) work? Does it cost extra? Does it work everywhere?
Our Closed Loop system is completely free - postage is prepaid and works from all locations.
How it works:
1. Send used cartridges back in the provided packaging.
2. We clean and refurbish reusable parts.
3. Captured microfibers are recycled into insulation, concrete reinforcement, or furniture.
4. Nothing goes to landfills or incinerators!

Does the filter work with pet hair?
YES! Our filters capture pet hair effectively. However, pet hair can clog the filter faster.
Our PlanetCare 2.0 includes a bypass - activate it when washing items heavily covered in pet hair or when washing natural fibers.
