Hey everyone; Aquaman here with Water Wisdom sponsored by WaterFilters.NET. Today’s product
is the Culligan ISH-200 shower filter. Now, this is sort of a strange looking device,
but it’s designed this way with really good purpose. The filter itself is offset to the
side and behind, so you don’t lose any height on your showerhead. See, this attachment piece
attaches to the neck, and then your existing shower head attaches to the filter itself
right here. So, because the filter is behind, you don’t lose that distance. There are
some filters that are called an intermediary style where, the shower filter itself causes
the height of the shower head to reduce by the length of the filter; 4 or 5 inches in
some cases. So, this one keeps it off to the side and behind so you don’t lose that height.
It is an excellent filter. It’s primarily, and all shower filters are really this way,
it’s primarily about removing chlorine, reducing any hydrogen sulfide odor, that’s
that rotten egg smell that some water supplies have and, because it utilizes KDF media, it’s
going to reduce the formation of scale. Now, scale is something you’re probably familiar
with, you may not have heard it called that before, but the white flaky or green flaky
build up you get on your showerhead is caused by minerals that are dissolved in your water
that precipitate out and stick and cling to the showerhead, and if you’re like my house,
you have to remove the showerhead and stick it in vinegar or a chemical you can buy at
your Wal-Mart, that CLR stuff that is just a very strong acid solution that dissolves
those minerals so you get some flow back out of your showerhead. The filter media inside
of the ISH-200 will reduce those hardness minerals and cause them not to build up on
your showerhead, at least not as much. So, if you’ve got trouble with dry skin in the
winter a shower filter is an excellent choice. If you have problems with dry hair anytime
of the year, chlorine is horrible for drying out the hair and the skin, especially in the
winter in the northern states where it gets very cold and dry, removing the chlorine from
the water is an excellent idea. Plus, who wants to breathe all that chlorine chemical
while you’re in a steamy hot shower and the chlorine is vaporizing all around you.
No, a great way to clear up that problem is with a shower filter like the Culligan ISH-200.
Again, you utilize your existing showerhead, so you remove your showerhead from the neck;
you install this on your neck, and then your showerhead on this. Very simple; opens up
real easily for filter changes, and inside is this filter cartridge that pops right out.
Here’s your little filter cartridge, and then it just pops back in, put the cover back
on, and you’re back in business. That is the Culligan ISH-200. I’m your host Aquaman
and thanks for watching!
