Most people regard a hot shower or bath as one of life's little pleasures. However, what many don't regard is the danger of chlorine in the water. Although chlorine is universally used to disinfect water, it is not safe for drinking, showering or bathing.

Did you know you absorb more chlorine from your shower than your drinking water?
It's true.
During a hot shower or bath, chlorine is vaporized and enters through your lungs and the pores of your skin. Its pungent odor can often irritate the eyes, nose, throat, lungs and mucous membranes. Even if you can't smell it, chlorine can cause hidden ailments, such as headaches and other neurotoxic reactions.
In addition, chlorine is cosmetically damaging to both hair and skin. For example, chlorine bonds with proteins in the hair making it dry and brittle, causing "blondes to turn green" and washing out natural color. It can strip the skin of its natural oils, leaving it dry, itchy, and prematurely aged.
But most importantly, studies show that cumulative exposure to chlorine significantly increases the rate of heart disease and both bladder and colon cancer.

The state-of-the-art technology that filters chlorine, sulfur, smell, rust water and traces of heavy metals in The ShowerFilterStore Filters is multi-fold: KDFTM (copper-zinc) and ChlorgonTM (mineral salts) in our April Shower® models, KDFTM and quartz crystals (in our bath filter), and KDFTM along with granular activated carbon (in our Aquasana® shower filter).
The ShowerFilterStore Filters are designed to use a replaceable cartridge that is easy to install, user-friendly, and earth-friendly.
In the presence of rushing water, the KDF media acts like poles of a battery, the copper becoming the cathode (negative pole) and the zinc becoming the anode (positive pole), thereby creating a minute electrical current. Because free (pure) chlorine is a very unstable compound, in the presence of KDF the chlorine molecule gives up its outermost electron, allowing it to immediately bond with the copper and zinc elements, thus forming harmless, chelatable body salts (cupric and zinc chlorides).

KDF is a compound made of copper and zinc, two dissimilar elements in a granular form that operates by the law of opposites. It effectively removes up to 99% of free chlorine, varying amounts of iron oxides, hydrogen sulfide and small amounts of lead and keeps the unit bacteriostatic.
CHLORGON is a mineral salt that removes combined chlorine.
CRYSTALLINE QUARTZ, that are specially washed and sun dried, help to energize the water by reducing the waters surface tension. This allows for an increase of sudsing and lathering of soaps and shampoos. The water has a lighter feel, similar to the feeling of softened water.
CHLORINE: It is a toxic, inorganic chemical that kills bacteria and living organic matter, including epidermal (skin) cells and cells within the body. It is a bleaching agent that causes dry skin, brittle hair and has been linked to colon and bladder cancer. When vaporized in a hot shower or bath, it is also an irritant to the lungs and mucous membranes.
BACTERIA: The KDF media is an inhospitable host for E. Coli and Pseudemonas bacteria and will inhibit their growth within the filter. KDF keeps the unit bacteriostatic.
|
HEAVY METALS: In the presence of the KDF media and the minute electrical current it generates, small traces of lead and larger amounts of iron oxides literally remove themselves from the water by bonding with the copper and zinc compound, similar to electro-plating. Iron and sulfur readily bond to the media, so much so that if there is an excess of these two elements in the water, the life span of the filter will be slightly shorter, resulting in the need for more frequent cartridge replacements. Models include: HOC, SLC, A1-C, HHC-2, AQ-4125.
WHY KDFTM AND CARBON?
As mentioned above, KDFTM performs excellently in all our April Shower models at removing chlorine and becomes catalyzed in the presence of hot water. It is also a bacteriostatic filtration media that prevents the growth of bacteria and fungi. It also helps prevent bacterial growth in carbon filtration media when the two are combined. Activated carbon in our Aquasana filter has long been known for its effectiveness at removing chlorine along with a wide spectrum of chemicals including VOC’s (volatile organic compounds) including herbicides and pesticides, many of which are carcinogenic.
The ShowerFilterStore.com is a family owned business, established in 1992, with the purpose of providing water filtration systems for the entire home including shower and bath. Now, you can turn your shower into a Chlorine-Free waterfall. It’s time to invigorate your lungs and rejuvenate your skin and hair!
