The shower filters come with three flow restrictors. These are used to reduce the flow of water going in to the shower filter. You DO NOT need to use a flow restrictor for the shower filter to work properly.
Red - 2.5 Gallons Per Minute
Green - 2.0 Gallons Per Minute
Yellow - 1.8 Gallons Per Minute
The shower filter comes with both thread sealing tape and a black sealing washer. You can use whichever you prefer, but we do not recommend using both.
The maximum operating temperature for the Shower Filter is rated at 120°F. To avoid scalding in the shower, the temperature should not exceed 110°F.
The process of oxidation occurs when the filter is activated by water. It will lose its filtering capability over time. If your shower filter has not been used in a few months, it should be replaced. Testing for the Shower Filter is based on continual usage.
The Shower Filter does not remove Chloramine. Chlorine exists in two forms; combined available chlorine, and free available chlorine (free-chlorine). Combined available chlorine is present as chloramine or other derivatives in water. Free available chlorine is the residual chlorine present as dissolved gas, hypochlorous acid, or hypochlorite not combined with ammonia. The Shower Filter removes the free available chlorine which presents the most danger to the human body.
NOTE: Simple OTO (ortho toluidine) type chlorine tests cannot be relied upon to show the presence of free available chlorine. This type of test also shows the presence of combined chlorine. When testing for free available chlorine, an inexpensive test is the DPD (N,N-diethyl-p-phenylenediamine) method.
The Shower Filter can withstand a maximum pressure of 125 PSI.
Our Shower Filter is compatible with your existing showerhead, or you can choose to add our massaging showerhead for an enhanced experience. The filter is easy to install and comes with Teflon sealing tape included.
The shower head is designed with a built-in swivel ball joint, so you can tilt and adjust the spray direction to your preferred angle.
