I read the an article that talks about filtering our shower some time ago... But then, we only had Kinertec V6 to filter our drinking water...
I was anxious to get a showerhead filter cos at that time I was pregnant and I didn't want my child to be born breathing in harmful chemicals like that....
After a long wait, the thing I have been waiting for is finally HERE! Yes, we will be launching our Kinertec Vitali-T energy Shower System soon!
Not only does it remove harmful chlorine, it also has 20 times more negative ions than conventional showerheads! :)
Well, if you need more info about it.. email Angel at verityy@yahoo.com. Meanwhile, here are some good reasons why you should FILTER YOUR SHOWER.

10 Benefits of Using a Shower Filter - Using a shower filter is one of the easiest and most effective ways to reduce harmful exposure to chlorine and other chemicals.
- Showering in filtered water results in greater respiratory health by reducing the risk of asthma and bronchitis from chlorine inhalation.
- Showering in chlorine-free, filtered water decreases the risks of bladder and breast cancer.
- Children, who are particularly at risk of the harmful effects of chlorine inhalation, benefit especially from the removal of chlorine from showering water.
- As chlorine is a leading cause of fatigue, showering in filtered, chlorine-free water results in higher energy levels and overall greater health.
- Removing chlorine from showering water results in better air quality throughout the house.
- Without the drying effects of chlorine, skin becomes softer, healthier, and younger looking.
- Removing chlorine from showering water reduces the presence of skin rashes and the appearance of wrinkles.
- Because the hair is able to preserve its natural moisturizing oils, it becomes softer and healthier when chlorine is removed from showering water.
- When the body is able to retain its natural moisturizers, the need for costly lotions and moisturizers is greatly reduced.
10 Reasons to Use a Shower Filter
- The EPA has stated that every household in the United States has elevated levels of chloroform in the air due to chlorine released from showering water.
- Tap water often contains at least as much, if not more, chlorine than is recommended for use in swimming pools.
- More chlorine enters the body through dermal absorption and inhalation while showering than through drinking tap water.
- The chlorine in showering water has harsh, drying effects on skin and hair.
- Skin pores widen while showering, making dermal absorption of chlorine and other chemicals possible.
- The chlorine in showering water can cause rashes and other skin irritations when absorbed by the skin.
- Chemicals in showering water vaporize at a much faster rate than the actual water. Thus, the steam in a shower contains a much higher concentration of chemicals than the water itself.
- Inhaled chemicals make their way into the bloodstream much more quickly than ingested chemicals, without the added filtration benefits of digestion.
- More water contaminants are released into the air of a home from the shower than from any other source.
- Chlorine is a suspected cause of breast cancer. Women suffering from breast cancer are all found to have 50-60 percent more chlorine in their breast tissue than healthy women.
