- If your tap water is disinfected with chloramine (chlorine plus ammonia) instead of chlorine, use a Vita-Fresh shower filter.
Chloramine is difficult to remove, however Vitamin C does the job effectively by neutralizing this hard-to-get-rid-of disinfectant. Vitamin C is also great at neutralizing chlorine. Other types of shower filters may be good for chlorine reduction but are unable to give you thorough and sustained protection from chloramine.
- As water passes through the Vita-Fresh shower filter, it releases Vitamin C which neutralizes chlorine and chloramine. By converting these toxic disinfectant chemicals into harmless compounds, the Vita-Fresh shower filter protects your skin, hair, eyes and lungs from the harsh and oxidizing effects of showering in municipally treated tap water.
Environmentally friendly Vitamin C dissolves with use and is good for the environment. If your municipality has a plastics recycling program, the plastic cartridge housing can be easily recycled.
