The filter effectively removes chlorine, trihalomethanes, radon and hydrogen sulfide from bath and shower water.

Your body absorbs more chlorine in one average shower than you do in drinking water for a week. Chlorine affects lipid metabolism (accelerates the formation of arteriosclerotic plaque), and accelerates free radical damage. Chlorine also irritates the skin, as well as the eyes, and nasal passages. Easily replaced cartridge may be reversed for backwashing. This unique design insures that the filter will last 15,000 gallons or the average family over a year. Constructed of high impact ABS, this premium shower filter utilizes a hefty 20 oz. (500% more than the competition) of patented KDF¨55 redox media in a replaceable cartridge. Water-saving adjustible showerhead provides 2.5 gpm at 60 psi for a comfortable, stimulating shower. The filter effectively removes chlorine, trihalomethanes, radon and hydrogen sulfide from bath and shower water. The cartridge for the high output ShowerSpriteª shower filter utilizes a hefty 20 oz. (500% more than the competition) of patented KDF¨55 redox media mixed with Chlorgon. KDF¨ media far outlasts carbon (up to a factor of 10 to 1) and effectively reduces the formation of hardness scale which can damage plumbing fixtures and leave hard-to-remove deposits. This easily replaced cartridge may be continually reversed thus extending the life of the cartridge. KDF¨55 is a unique patented media that uses the natural process of electrochemical oxidation/reduction (redox potential) to effectively remove chlorine and its associated disinfection by-products (DBPÕs) like trihalomethanes (THMÕs); heavy metals including arsenic, lead, cadmium, mercury, and aluminum; hydrogen sulfide (up to 0.5 ppm); as well as control bacteria, fungus, algae, and mold, while rendering water bacteriostatic.
