Berkey Inline Shower Filter With Easy-Replace Shower Filter Cartridge

Product Information

When we talk about the capacity of a filter, we are talking about the gallons of water the shower head filter can clean before you need to replace it. Before this model was released on the market, there was another model that was rated for up to 10,000 gallons or 12 months.

When pressurized shower water is filtered through the filter media, soluble lead cations are reduced to insoluble lead atoms, which are electroplated onto the surface of the filter. Filter replacement:Berkey: Berkey filters have a longer lifespan, lasting up to one year or around 20,000 gallons of water. This means fewer replacements throughout the year, offering long-term convenience. AquaBliss: The shower filters by AquaBliss employ a multi-stage filtration process, incorporating KDF 55, calcium sulfite, activated carbon, and ceramic balls. With the KDF 55 filtration media, the growth of microorganisms like fungi, algae and bacteria in a shower head is also restricted. Although this shower head filter is unable to remove hard minerals, it can still help to reduce the build up of scale on your shower wall or tub. High Capacity

Now, let’s discover some of the notable features and performance of the Berkey Shower Filter. Reduction of Contaminants Here are a few other in-line shower filters that may be worth considering if you are on the fence about the Berkey: Scientists found there was a higher incidence of cancer of the oesophagus, rectum, breast, and larynx and of Hodgkins Disease among those drinking chlorinated surface waters... Volatile organics can evaporate from water in a shower or bath... Conservative calculations indicate that inhalation exposures can be as significant as exposure from drinking the water, that is, one can be exposed to just as much by inhalation during a shower as by drinking 2 liters of water a day... People who shower frequently could be exposed through ingestion, inhalation and/or dermal absorption."

Berkey Shower Filters contain a new and improved shower filtration medium which is highly effective in reducing free chlorine, hydrogen sulfide, scale and iron oxide (rust) from water. Unsurprisingly, this impressive shower head filter has a flow rate of 2.5 gallons per minute. However, the flow rate will still heavily depend on the shower head that you use. The shower head is not the only factor that affects the flow of water. Other factors like water pressure and contaminant levels can decrease the flow as well. This shower filter has a flow rate of 2.5 gallons per minute. This adheres to the EPA standard and shouldn’t impact your existing shower head’s performance once installed. Alternative Models One of the most important things that customers want are shower filters with an easy installation and installing the Berkey filter is like a walk in the park. All you need to do is unattach the shower head and screw the filter to the water source. Since chlorination is a long established public health practice necessary for the disinfection of drinking water, consumers are aware of the health benefit drinking filtered water can provide. However, it’s surprising for some people to learn that 50% of their daily exposure is in the shower. The other 50% comes from their drinking water. Therefore, filtering shower water is equally as important as filtering drinking water.

Filter media granules are high-purity copper-zinc formulations used to reduce hydrogen sulfide and scale in shower filter applications. High-purity copper-zinc redox media consistently remove most free chlorine by electrochemically reducing dissolved chlorine gas to water-soluble chloride ions.

The filter also has a big advantage compared to competitors: it lasts for up to one year, so you’ll get a longer performance (almost double) compared to standard showerhead filters. While this particular filter is known for reducing water pressure somewhat, it won’t ruin your shower experience. If your water comes out with a slightly lower pressure (which is normal), this means that your Berkey® Inline filter can work in good conditions.
