Enviro
Products Premium Shower Filter-
How
Does the Premium Shower Filter Work?
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
14 oz. of KDF
and 2 oz. of crystal Quartz for enhanced performance.
How
Long will the Premium Shower Filter Last?
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.
Replacement
filter cartridges are available from our web site. Sending
in the warranty card allows New Wave Enviro to send a reminder
when it is time to change cartridges. (Customer names /
addresses are Not sold to any company).
