Shower Head Filters: 4 Reasons Why You Should Use One

Many people understand the reasons for using a water filter for their drinking water, but what about your bath water? Yes, most bathing water becomes purified from germs and microorganisms, but what does that chlorine do to you and your shower? To understand what the chlorine used to treat your water does to bath time, for you and your family, let’s take a look at 4 reasons to use a shower head filter:

Reasons to Use Shower Head Filters

    • Dry hair and/or skin – Many that use shower head filters enjoy the benefits of hydrated hair and/or skin vs. those who don’t use filters in their shower. Since most purified bath water contains chlorine, its effects are the same as swimming in a pool. To counter this, many use a shower head filter to filter out this and other chemicals used to purify our water supplies.
    • Your health – Although the water we bathe in may seem fine on the outside, without a shower filter in place, you may be at risk for serious health risks. The chlorine used to treat our water could not only be absorbed through our skin, it is possible to breathe it in from the fumes of heated water. To avoid any possible complications, it’s best to find a shower head filter you like and install it as soon as possible.
    • Smell – Although the water purification process used to protect us from different bacteria and other microorganisms uses chlorine, there is sometimes a horrible odor to go along with that. I don’t know about you, but I take a shower to remove odors, not the other way around.
    • Cleaning – Now here’s something you may not know – some shower head filters help soften your water, which in turn, helps you to clean your shower. Yes, we have all heard of hard water stains and such, but where do you think they come from? Yes, hard water. With a filter in place, cleaning the shower will become a simpler task vs. trying to get out those pesky stains.

No matter how you cut it, having a shower head filter in your shower is not something you should take lightly. To avoid things like health risks or even just dry hair, consider getting a filter and install it today.
