It was used during World War I as a chemical warfare agent. It is used today as a additive to drinking water to kill harmful micro-organisms. While this can be an important health benefit, chlorine itself is far from beneficial: it attacks organic material, such as the skin and skin oils, which dries out the skin and hair. Because chlorine vaporizes along with the hot water, it is inhaled into the lungs. It is also absorbed into the skin. According to some experts, five times more chlorine enters the body through the skin during a shower than enters through drinking 8 glasses of chlorinated tap water!\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e What are the Benefits of Using the Premium Shower Filter?\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e     *  Moister, smoother skin, less itching which requires less moisturizer\u003cbr\u003e     *  Healthier hair - less brittle, fewer split ends, deeper, longer lasting color for dyed or highlighted hair\u003cbr\u003e     *  Eliminates chlorine odor from skin and hair\u003cbr\u003e     *  Prevents breathing chlorine gas or its absorption into skin\u003cbr\u003e     *  Stops burning around the eyes of chlorine-sensitive people \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e How Long Before I Notice Results?\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e     * Elimination of chlorine odor is immediate!\u003cbr\u003e     * 5 to 7 days are required for skin and hair to regain their natural balance \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e How Does the Premium Shower Filter Work?\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e A patented mixture of zinc and copper called KDF-55, plus crystal quartz, converts chlorine into zinc chloride. Zinc is considered to be helpful in alleviating dandruff and is used in anti-dandruff shampoos. Unlike carbon, KDF stands up to hot water and is very effective in filtering out chlorine, odors and dirt particles. KDF possesses strong bacteriostatic character, inhibiting the growth of bacteria, fungus, algae and mildew. The Premium Shower Filter contains 16 oz. of KDF and 2 oz. of crystal Quartz for enhanced performance and natural water softening.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e How Long will the Premium Shower Filter Last?\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e On average, the filter will last about one year. Initially, the filter will remove 98% of the chlorine. Over time, the removal percentage declines until it is at about 87% after one year. Accordingly, we recommend annual cartridge replacement. To make it easier to change the filter, we recommend soaking the entire unit in hot water (1 gallon) and white vinegar (1 tablespoon) for about 10-15 min. Take the unit out while it is still hot and turn it counter-clockwise.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Replacement filter cartridges are available from the Bread Beckers Inc\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Sending in the warranty card allows New Wave Enviro to send a reminder when it is time to change cartridges.

Hand tighten only- over tightening can crack the filter housing.\u003cbr\u003e     * The Premium Shower Filter is now ready for use. Simply turn on the water as usual. The very first time the Premium Shower Filter is used, the water may take a minute or so to flow through.\u003cbr\u003e     * To replace the Premium Shower Filter make sure that you keep the O-rings in place and rub them with olive oil or petroleum jelly. You can also use the olive oil or petroleum jelly on the threads of the housing to make it easier to open next year.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Warranty\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Premium Shower Filter housing has a one year manufactures warranty from date of purchase for defects or cracks. The life of the cartridge can vary depending on the water conditions and how long it's used; therefore we cannot warranty the filter.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"New Wave Enviro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43611948580957,"sku":"01152","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop.breadbeckers.com\/products\/premium-shower-filter-white-finish","provider":"Shop Bread Beckers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
