How often do I need to change the filter in the zazen Shower Filters?Updated 2 months ago

• The Infinity Shower Filters - For optimal performance, we recommend replacing the zazen Infinity Shower Filter Cartridge every 6 months*, regardless of the volume of water filtered. However, for high usage (showering more than 16 minutes per day), we recommend replacing it sooner.
  
  
• The Streamline Shower Filter - the Streamline Filter Cartridge has a maximum 24 month life*, regardless of volume of water filtered. However, for high usage (showering more than 16 minutes per day), we recommend replacing it sooner.
  
  
• The Handset & Raindrop Shower Filters - the Shower Filter Cartridge has a maximum 12 month life*, regardless of volume of water filtered. However, for high usage (showering more than 16 minutes per day), we recommend replacing it sooner.

*This is dependent on water quality which may impact the life of the filter.
If the filters are not replaced on time, the ability of your shower filter to effectively remove chlorine, particulates and heavy metals will be impacted and can cause damage to the shower filter housing voiding any warranty. 

Chlorine is vapourised when heated. As you shower, you inhale and absorb these vapours through your lungs and skin so these chemicals go directly into your blood stream! Recent studies link excessive chlorine and chlorine vapour exposure to breast, kidney (renal) and bladder cancers. It can also cause dry irritated skin, acne and hair damage.

Important notice: The zazen Handset, Raindrop, and Streamline Shower Filters, as well as the Streamline Replacement Filter Cartridge, are no longer available for sale. This guide is intended for existing customers who still have a Handset, Raindrop, or Streamline Shower Filter.
