The Untold Secrets About Shower Head Water Filters

Stylists, beauticians and hair-dressers the world over advocate the use of shower head water filters. And why is that? It is because harmful bacteria, chlorine and lead enter the water in your tap and get into your body. The moment you switch on the ‘heat’ mode of your shower, remember that it is an open invitation to harmful synthetics and bacteria. The shower heat causes the skin pores to inflate thus enabling easy absorption of chlorine and other dangerous chemicals. A harmful, carcinogenic chemical like lead is leached through the water pipe entering your home. There is only one way around it: use a shower water filter.

A two-stage shower head water filter is probably the best shower filter and comes highly recommended. This will leave you feeling tingling clean. The first stage could comprise the granular activated carbon which employs the process of absorption for purifying liquids and gases. Through this process gas and liquid molecules get attracted to the powdered – actually porous – carbon surface. Bear in mind that the degree of micro porosity is so high that a surface area of about 500m2 is available in just one gram of carbon.

This is large enough to sop up thousands of toxic chemicals. The carbon granules are positively charged which render it attractive to chemicals and impurities riddled with negative ions. So you see what happens when chlorinated water containing all the impurities of the world passes through, don’t you? These ruinous elements get left behind so you only get purified water through your filter. The worst granulated activated carbon (GAC) will remove particles of the size 50 microns. The best one removes particles of the size 0.5 microns. A word of advice before proceeding to the next stage: Make sure that your shower head water filter retains all the minerals and the good qualities present in the water.

The next stage in your shower head water filter should comprise the more effective carbon block. This (need we tell you?) is the hallmark of the ‘best’ shower head filters available in the market. It has a power of absorption that strongly rivals that of its granulated cousin.

Now that you have installed the best shower filter – in its two-stage (also called multi-stage) avatar, let us analyze what it can do for you. Great skin, to start with. Hair that is naturally soft (sans conditioners), great lungs…. in short, great health. What more could you possibly ask for?
