Vitashower Vitamin C shower filters work at any water temperature or water pressure and independently of the quality of your water.
But... is it safe? YES, Vitamin C is known for strengthening the immune system and as an excellent nutrient for
skin and hair. The use of Vitamin C is more environmentally conscious
than traditional activated carbon, KDF or sulfur-based chemicals such
as calcium (or sodium) sulfite or sulfate. Vitamin C is not toxic to
humans and is safe for the tenderest skin.
A 2007 independent shower filter comparison tested the top 8 shower filter brands under real world conditions. Tests
include before and after total residual chlorine (a combination of free
chlorine & chloramine) levels using a digital chlorine meter to
measure the results. Each chlorine filter shower head was tested for its ability to
remove both free and combined chlorine in an actual residential shower
unit. This shower filter comparison puts to the test various manufacturer's claims, as to
the effectiveness of their chlorine shower filters. Vitashower shower
filter ranks the Number One best shower filter on the market. Here's the summary (prices as of 2009):

Shower Filter -- Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Vitashower filtering media?
100% Pharmaceutical Grade Vitamin C.
How does Vitashower remove chlorine and chloramines from water?
Vitashower utilizes ascorbic acid (vitamin C) chemistry for
dechlorination. Vitamin C does not hold the chlorine; it turns free
chlorine and chlorine by-products into a harmless compound.
Is there scientific evidence that Vitamin C can be used in dechlorination?
Yes. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, National Risk Management
Research Laboratory demonstrated that Vitamin C is a safe and fast
dechlorination agent. Click Research for detailed information.
How much Vitamin C is in the Vitashower filter?
There are 250 grams of Vitamin C in each Vitashower cartridge. One gram
of Vitamin C will neutralize 1 ppm (part per million) chlorine in 100
gallons of water.
What is the advantage of Vitamin C?
Vitamin C is the safest and healthiest dechlorination process. It not
only fully neutralizes both chlorine and chloramines but also provide
additional nutrients for skin and hair.
Has Vitamin C ever been used in dechlorination?
Yes. Vitamin C dechlorination has a lengthy history. It has been used
in EPA and APHA methods for the dechlorination of lab samples. In the
medical industry, it is the standard for critical applications such as
dialysis, where the introduction of chlorinated water or toxic chemical
would be catastrophic.
Does Vitashower filter require maintenance?
No. Vitashower does not need any maintenance. You screw it in once and
then enjoy chlorine-free showers.
Do I have to back flush the Vitashower filter?
No.
How long will the Vitashower last and how much water will it filter?
A Vitashower shower filter will process approximately 15,000
Gallons (57,000 litres) of water. On average it will last about 10-12 months for a family of 2 or 3. (Based on average shower time per person (8 mins) and average water use per shower of 3 gallons per minute).
This is about 300-400% longer than a KDF shower filter. Temperature and pressure of the water have no effect on
lifetime.
Does Vitashower have a replaceable cartridge?
Yes, we recommend replacement approximately every 10 months.
Does the Vitashower filter reduce the flow rate?

Gallons. Therefore, half of the vitamin is useful in providing
additional nutrients for skin and hair.

Yes. They are safe and effective for dechlorination of fish tanks. One
tablet is capable of neutralizing 100 Gallons of water.
