Beware though, it decreases water pressure very slightly, e.g. about 10%. My wife prefers to shower in a firehose, so I had to install a splitter via $20 in parts at Home Depot – but no problem, we now have his and hers shower heads. I find the water pressure quite fine.

I bought this item one month ago and I thought it would be too good to be true so I was a little hesitant about buying it. After reading the reviews I decided to go ahead and give it a shot. However, I ordered mine directly through the Sprite website(not on Amazon). My husband installed the filter quickly and with no problems at all. It did not come with plumbing tape so you will need to have some on hand when installing it. It would have been nice if they included the tape for as much money you pay. Also, the filter itself is pretty big….much bigger than I imagined by looking at the pictures. But I didn’t mind as long as it worked good. The instructions tell you to turn the water all the way to hot to let the filter rinse itself for the first time you use it. The instructions were a little vague on this because I thought you had to turn it all the way to hot every single time you use the shower but I contacted Sprite directly and they said you only have to do this the first initial time. To my satisfaction I immediately noticed that the water had no chlorine smell anymore(I live in Delaware so our water is highly chlorinated). I was so excited. The next best thing is that it left my hair so much softer and manageable. I have long hair and before we got the filter it was always frizzy and just seemed unruly. Now my hair is softer and silkier…..big plus!! I haven’t noticed much about skin dryness because my skin always seems dry in the winter months anyway. The filter did not affect our water pressue at all which was one of my main fears about getting the filter in the first place. In fact, it actually corrected our leaky shower head that was dripping all day and night….another big plus!! Overall, our water just feels and smells cleaner. I would definitely recommend this product.

–THE CHLORINE ISSUE–
Chlorine is a known carcinogen. A little research on Google and PubMed will reveal that to you. If you’re checking out this product, you most likely already know that chlorine is toxic.
It is estimated that about 80% of the chlorine the average person takes in from water is via showing. So those people avoiding chlorine in their drinking water for health reasons would be wise to use a shower filter.
I’ve been using the Sprint filter for over 12 years (not the same one!! They last a long time, but not that long!! I wish).
I am very sensitive to chlorine. I can’t shower, for instance, in places like L.A. because they bathroom soon smells like a gas chamber to my sensitive nose.
–THE BENEFITS I NOTICE–
This shower filter from Sprite Industries makes a very noticeable difference to the levels of chlorine (and related toxic gases, such as chloroform) in the bathroom atmosphere. I got my first one 12 years ago when I moved to a town in New Zealand that was having issues with farm animal run-off getting into their water supply. They temporary solution was to greatly increase the level of chlorine treatment in the water. The water smelt so strong just washing my hands was a complete turn-off. I installed one of these filters and the problem was solved. No more toxic chlorine smell when showering.
I travel a lot and I take one of these filters with me every where. I install it where ever I go and need use a shower. It is usually very easy to remove the existing shower-head by hand, and screw this one on. I don’t find that plumbing tape is necessary.
My hair is nicer when I use filter water, and needs washing less often.
My skin does not get dry when I use filtered water. Otherwise I tend to get dryness on my shins, elbows, knees, and face. I don’t experience this when using this filter for my showers.
My brother has very sensitive skin. He tends to get eczema. His skin easily gets red, thin, broken, and itchy. This problems essentially went away after I gave him one of these shower filters. He couldn’t believe he had suffered so much for so many years, and the answer was so cheap and simple.
–TIPS and TRICKS–
Many modern showers have a hose that goes from the wall to a shower head that sits in an adjustable bracket. The idea being that you can lift it off the bracket by hand and shower any way you like. Usually, however, where the hose screws into the fitting on the wall is too close to the wall for the shower filter to screw in. What you can do is screw the hand piece off of the other end of the hose and put the filter on between the hose end and the hand-piece. Due to the way the threads go, the filter will be around the opposite way from usual, which is fine as the filter is bi-directional.
This trick also works well if the shower is above a bath tub and you wish to have a chlorine-free bath. You can install the filter as described above, but just leave off the shower head (or take it off) when you want a bath. The shower hose can dangle down into the bath tube and fill it (assuming it is fitter at a low enough height, which they usually are).
–ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS–
I’ve been so happy with the performance of the Sprite filters, that I’ve never had the inclination to try any other brand or type. I have researched all the major kinds out there, and none convinced me to change. The Sprite was the most cost effective, and gets rated as having excellent results.
–THE CARTRIDGES–
I find that the filter cartridge lasts me much longer than a year because it is just me and my partner using it, and my showers are relatively short and only every second day or so. They can last me for a couple of years before I notice the chlorine smell returning.
–FOUR STARS, ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT–
I gave have left one star off of this review simply because this product has not changed in the past 12 years and I think there is room for improvement. The most notable would be to include a convenient way to record on the filter when it was installed, and thus when it “might” need to be replaced. Better, would be a small built-in (resettable) flow meter or some way to indicate when it needs to be replaced. I realise, however, such an innovation may increase the price, but it would also ensure we get maximum usage of the filter, and minimum exposure to chlorine once it needs replacing.
Happy showering!

Rating:
These filters work great in getting chlorine out of the shower water. (Important for my diabetic skin!!) They are rated for 10,000 gallons. The filter in the housing can be replaced (a money saver). We replace it about every 6 months.
My gripe is that it comes with teflon tape that is used to seal the connection and hubbie can never get it to not leak a bit.
The plastic filter unit can crack over time (one of ours lasted about 1 1/2 years and the second about 4 years).
The replacement filters should not be that expensive, in my opinion.
No problem with the water pressure dropping very slightly. I hardly noticed it.

For many years I had been suffering from horrible allergy attacks after getting out of the shower. I never understood why. Finally fed up, I did some research on-line and realized I could actually be allergic to the chlorine! I immediately ordered this filter but didn’t have high hopes. Well, I can’t hardly believe my luck! I no longer have sneezing attacks after my shower and I don’t go through a half a box of Kleenex every night. It’s amazing! A simple solution for a weird problem. I would highly recommend this to anyone suffering from the same crazy shower allergies as I was. Give it a shot!
