Nothing that screws onto a shower arm can remove the dissolved calcium and magnesium that make water “hard” — that needs a plumbed-in softener. What it does do is take out the chlorine and particulates that make a hard-water shower feel harsh, so the water is gentler to stand under and your soap and shampoo behave better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat it filters\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChlorine\u003c\/strong\u003e — activated carbon and KDF-55 are the industry-standard media for reducing free chlorine in shower water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSediment, rust and grit\u003c\/strong\u003e — layered stainless-steel mesh and PP cotton catch particulates down to 1–5 microns.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSome dissolved metals\u003c\/strong\u003e — KDF-55 is used to reduce trace lead and mercury.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is not a drinking-water purifier and is not intended to treat water for consumption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFits the shower you already have\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUniversal ½\" (G1\/2) threaded connection — the same fitting used by standard UK shower arms and hoses.
