Aquasana Shower Filter
|
In the product description, the filter claims it has a two-step purification process. After testing the water before and after filtering, the system works like a charm. The first stage takes out chlorine and improves pH balances, whereas the second stage takes out synthetic chemicals.
You may be wondering why someone would invest in a shower filter?
Synthetic
and volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) are harmful to your body as well as your skin. With all of your open
pores, your skin has the potential to digest poisonous elements.
Using the Aquasana AQ-4100 Shower Filter is another step in the right direction for a holistic approach to living.
With such a device, it is only natural to wonder if the filter reduces shower pressure.
After analysis, the results proved that there is only a minimal loss in water pressure - nothing the average person would notice.
The Aquasana AQ-4100 Shower Filter works
on almost any shower, and does not change the height. The Aquasana AQ-4100 Shower Filter lasts up to six
months, however; this is with one person taking one shower per day. Since this is atypical of normal
households, the average lifespan of one filter is roughly three months.
The good thing is that Aquasana shower filter built the showerhead filter system to be replaced. It was not difficult replacing the filter, but is one of those things you often forget to do. Sites like Amazon offer a "subscribe and save" program to ensure you have a filter arriving in your mailbox every quarter.
The Aquasana AQ-4100 Shower Filter is compact in size, however; it adds considerable weight to your shower. Those who have older plumbing and showers should be extra careful and ensure the system does not strain your shower too much.
One of the drawbacks of the Aquasana AQ-4100 Shower Filter is that the filters can only be bought online.

If you suffer from skin problems, infections, or other health related issues, having a water filter on your shower is not a bad idea. |
The system effectively reduces natural dry skin and itching. You would be surprised to learn how bad chlorine is for our skin.
In the end, the Aquasana AQ-4100 Shower Filter is
well worth the money. While these types of products can be found in a hardware store or elsewhere, their build is not nearly as good.
Critics claim the Aquasana is too heavy and bulky; however, consider how much water it is purifying per second. In order to keep up with a household and provide great water pressure, the device has to be able to withstand a moderate amount of abuse.
