Reasons to Choose the Deluxe-5 Shower Filter Head
The Deluxe-5 Shower Filter’s advanced performance and features make it a natural choice for anyone wanting a dechlorinating system for a healthier shower.
1. One of the top engineered shower filters for the best protection possible from chlorine!
2. Stylish chrome shower head with 5 massage/spray options
3. No-slip, soft-grip dial for ease-of-use
4. Properly designed KDF filtration is better than carbon filters for chlorine reduction
5. Rubber water ports reduce scale buildup and improve water flow
6. Quick and easy installation and simple maintenance
Don’t Get Fooled!
You may have seen retailers advertising VOC removal from a point-of-use shower filter; we advise caution and would disagree. We do not know of any research that shows otherwise. A properly designed shower filter works great on chlorine removal but not on VOCs. The only sure way to get the healthiest possible showers is with a whole home system that removes VOCs in addition to chlorine.
Technology
What is in the Deluxe 5 Shower Filter Head?
1. Dechlorinating KDF media shower filter cartridge
2. Chrome exterior shower head with five settings and rubber ports
The main goal of your Deluxe-5 Shower Filter Head is to provide you with the best protection possible from the potential toxic side-effects of chlorine. The testing Purahome has seen shows this is a premiere filtration system.
How does the Deluxe 5 Shower Filter remove contaminants?
Your Deluxe-5 uses a proprietary blend of KDF Media to convert or reduce chlorine into a soluble chloride salt.
It’s all about a chemical reaction! Think of this example: why does your car rust in the winter? Because iron in your car is oxidized (loses electrons) by salt and water. It is a result of a redox reaction (reduction-oxidation).
In your shower, KDF (a copper-zinc mixture) undergoes a redox reaction with chlorine gas: the chlorine gas gets reduced (picks up electrons from zinc) to turn into chloride (a harmless dissolved salt in your water).
KDF Redox media reduces chlorine in higher water temperatures better than carbon. It is also bacteriostatic. Your Deluxe-5 filter cartridge design allows water to have the proper contact time with the KDF for effective chlorine reduction without sacrificing flow rates.
The average chlorine removal of 93% over the life of the filter is impressive.
A Superior Shower Filter Head
Purahome has found many shower filters on the market contain loosely packed filtration media inside. Just shake it and you will hear it. Your Deluxe-5 is higher quality with packed-in media. Just holding the filter in your hand will let you know the filter is tightly packed. This means the filter is less likely to channel and let untreated water through.
Your Deluxe-5 Shower Filter Head is perfect for a healthy, invigorating and relaxing shower experience. You can choose from the following 5 spray settings:
1. Massage
2. Combined Massage/Spray
3. Spray
4. Combined Spray/Bubble
5. Bubble
A Cleaner Shower Stall & Shower Head
An additional benefit of your Deluxe-5 Shower Filter Head is that is has the ability to reduce the fine sediment in your shower. You would not notice this when you are showering but you may when you are cleaning your shower stall. By removing fine sediment, there is less matter in your water for soap scum and minerals to adhere to.
The water ports on your Deluxe-5 head are made with rubber. It is much harder for scale to build up on rubber. Simply use your fingers to go over the ports and voila…you have just cleaned them. This helps ensure longevity and good water flow from your Deluxe-5 shower head.
Filter Installation & Maintenance
Follow these tips to install your Deluxe-5 Shower Filter Head (or change the filter):
1. Use several wraps of Teflon tape on the threads. We recommend approximately 8 wraps in a clockwise direction when facing the threads. The head will not have to be as tightly installed to prevent leaks if you follow this plumbing trick. This results in an easier-to-move shower head and less stress on the housing.
2. Run your Deluxe-5 Shower Filter for a minute or less when it is first installed. This will eliminate any media fines that have settled during shipping.
Filter Life & Scientific Testing
Testing data shows a high of 99% chlorine removal (most shower filters don’t reach this level of proficiency) when the Deluxe-5 Shower Filter is new. Testing reveals an 87% removal after 10 000 g of water at 2 ppm chlorine have passed through the filter. This represents an approximate efficiency of 93% chlorine removal over the life of the filter. The more often your filter gets replaced, the better your protection against chlorine exposure.
The average Deluxe-5 Shower Filter is replaced every 6 to 12 months (depending on your family’s use and needs).

This dechlorinating filter is wonderful. I don’t have to use as much moisturizer after every shower. I don’t have to worry about my children being exposed to so much chlorine in their water. Thank you! Ms. Thomas

FAQs
How often do I need to change my shower filter?
Depending on the number of people living in your home and frequency of showers taken, your shower filter can last from 6 months to a year. We can do the calculation for you if you contact us.
My shower filter is leaking and/or spraying water, is it broken?
Determine where the water is leaking and/or spraying from. It could be that either:
a) mineral build-up in the nozzles need to be cleaned out by soaking the shower head in vinegar or EZCal.
b) the unit needs to be tightened (can add Teflon tape to help create a better seal),
c) an O-ring has come loose or has fallen off if it is dripping from the middle
d) the unit is cracked somewhere likely from dropping the shower filter (if it is a hand-held filter).
How do shower filters make my shower water healthier? Does it reduce heavy metals and other contaminants from my water?
Chlorinated water contains dissolved chlorine that off-gases more readily at warmer temperatures. The quickest and greatest route of exposure to chlorine gas is through inhalation typically occurring during showering and bathing. Chlorine can irritate skin and eyes, as well as, aggravate asthma, eczema and psoriasis. Purahome offers shower filters that are very effective at reducing your exposure to chlorine while showering for healthier, younger looking skin and softer, dandruff-free hair.
While your shower filter works very well to reduce chlorine, it cannot reduce your exposure to other waterborne contaminants including chlorine- disinfection by-products, heavy metals and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Some shower filters are advertised as being able to remove VOCs from water, but we do not know of any research that would indicate that a shower filter is capable of doing so. For this reason, we recommend whole home systems that reduce VOCs in addition to chlorine to provide you and your family with the healthiest showers and baths possible.
Can I get a filter for my bath?
There is no small, easy-to-use, filter specific for your bath that we are currently aware of. The most inexpensive approach would be to install a whole home carbon-based filter that will typically require an annual filter change.
