Product Description
The Inline Shower Filter is an economical filter that can be installed inline to your existing handheld shower hose, for soft filtered shower water without compromising on style. The sleek design incorporates a swivel-ball attachment, allowing the unit to adjust to any angle for a customised and chlorine reduced shower experience. Filtering shower water to reduce your chlorine exposure can be a great way to promote healthier, hydrated skin and softer hair.
Why use a shower filter? Disinfection chemicals like chlorine are often added to our town water supplies to kill germs and bacteria. However, in hot shower water, the chlorine can vaporise and be inhaled while also being absorbed through our skin. Some people experience dry, itchy skin, brittle hair, irritated sore eyes and worsened health conditions (such as asthma and eczema) from exposure to chlorinated water. Once the water has safely arrived to your home, the disinfection chemicals have done their job and there is no need to shower in them – so use a shower water filter!
Pure and simple science: The Inline Shower Filter works by using Sprite’s special patented filtration media, Chlorgon, and the Redox process to convert chlorine into harmless chloride molecules. Chloride molecules are too large to be absorbed by skin or vaporise into steam that can be inhaled - unlike potentially harmful chlorine molecules.
Chlorgon is a powerful blend of copper, zinc and calcium sulphide inside the Inline Shower Filter’s cartridge which filters water when it passes through. It has been designed specifically for hot water use. Chlorgon actually becomes more efficient when water temperatures increase (maximum temperature = 49°C).
Inside the Inline Shower Filter’s ultra-high-strength housing is an easy to reverse and replace cartridge. The cartridge is recommended by Sprite to be replaced every 3 months for optimum filtering performance. This shower filter is better for your body and better for the environment, as the Inline Shower Filter’s cartridge is easy to recycle. Simply poke a hole in the cartridge’s screen and empty the contents into garden soil. The cartridge is then able to be placed with other recyclables.
The Inline Shower Filter can be securely DIY fitted to most bath and shower taps (no plumber required). This shower filter connects inline to most handheld shower hoses and features self-sealing threads.
*Converts free chlorine and some combined chlorine to harmless salt-based chloride molecules.

Seems to work quite well. Hoping it can be cleaned out or a new filter put in but not sure .
PWPure Water Systems1 year agoHi Callum, thank you for your 5 star review! Absolutely, the replacement Inline shower filter cartridges can be purchased on our website and should be replaced every 3 months for optimum filtering performance.
- MMmark m.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars5 years agovery good
could only attach the filter to the hand held part of the shower due to no room between the filter body and the tiles. My wife has a skin condition and thankfully only uses the hand held part. it is yet to be seen if it will help her condition, however the water no longer causes pain or irritation and that is a fantastic result.
