H2O SHH-IL-SN Inline Filter For Hand Held Shower Head

H2O SHH-IL-SN Inline Filter For Hand Held (HH) Shower Head. 

Did you know those relaxing, hot showers or baths you love to take may be hazardous to your health?

Many people believe if they don’t drink unfiltered tap water they are safe from the toxic chlorine. Unfortunately people still absorb chlorine when they bathe, shower, or use public chlorinated pools or jacuzzis.

Did you know that two-thirds of the chlorine taken into the average person’s body comes from taking hot showers? During a shower heat opens the pores allowing water to be absorbed through skin, with it chlorine enters the body. The steam you breathe in while showering can contain up to 50 times the amount of chlorine (and other contaminants) than the water coming out of the tap.

This inline filter removes chlorine from water and helps to prevent soap scum build up, making this a perfect addition to your shower ritual.

Lead-free, tough construction design is maintenance-free and lasting. It can be fitted to all standard handheld showers.

ABOUT KDF 55

KDF 55 Media is unparalleled in Chlorine removal and heavy metal reduction. Listed as a microbial device by the EPA for its outstanding bacteria control, KDF is bacteriostatic.

KDF 55 Media is used in chlorine removal applications in conjunction with granular activated carbon. KDF 55 strips the chlorine from the water before the water contacts the carbon. The carbon, not being burdened with the job of chlorine removal is then free to perform higher level carbon filtration. Such as removal of chemical contaminants including Volatile Organic Chemical (VOC's) and Trihalomethanes (THM's).

Using KDF 55 in conjunction with granular activated carbon extends the life of the media bed significantly over using carbon alone. That means longer service runs before replacement of the media is required.
