5 reasons your skin needs a filtered showerhead

You picked the body wash carefully, but did you check the water? Here is what changes for your skin when chlorine and chloramine come out of it first.

Softer-feeling skin after rinsing with filtered water

Softer feeling skin

Free chlorine is a reactive oxidizer, and it does not stop working once it leaves the pipe. It can strip the natural oils that sit on the surface of your skin, which is part of why skin can feel tight, squeaky or dry the moment you step out of the shower.

Sans reduces more than 99.5% of free chlorine before the water reaches you, using a calcium sulfite stage that converts it into harmless chloride. With gentler water running through it, you may notice skin that feels softer and less tight within the first few showers.

Healthier looking skin

The same oxidation that affects how skin feels also shows up in how it looks. Chlorine exposure is associated with skin that looks drier and more dull, and with more visible flaking on the arms, legs and back. No body lotion can keep up with something that gets reapplied every single shower.

Take the chlorine out of the equation and you may notice less dryness, less flaking and skin that looks more even after a hot shower. Cleaner water is not a treatment. It is a better starting point for everything you put on top of it.
Sans Filtered Showerhead removing what the city adds to water

Sans removes what the city adds

Utilities disinfect with free chlorine, and many now use chloramine, which is chlorine bonded with ammonia. This contaminant can leave your skin feeling tight, dry, and even itchy.

Unlike many shower filters, Sans runs your water through two stages instead of one. This ensures both chlorine and chloramine are removed from the water. Calcium sulfite handles free chlorine, and catalytic activated carbon breaks chloramine down at the carbon surface.

Backed by science

Shower filters make big promises and almost never show the paperwork. Sans has been tested through SGS, an independent global lab, to NSF/ANSI 177 standards, the recognized benchmark for shower filtration. It exceeds NSF/ANSI Standard 177 for chlorine reduction.

Sans Filtered Showerhead as a bathroom fixture

Beautiful design

Most filtered showerheads look like equipment. Clear plastic canisters, bolt on housings, a visible cartridge changing color above your head. Sans keeps the filtration inside the head, so the thing on your wall reads as a fixture instead of a filter.

Four finishes, chosen to match the hardware you already have. Two water modes, Jet and Rain, so you can run a softer spray over skin or a firmer one to rinse. It installs in a few minutes with the wrench, tape and step by step guide in the box, so no plumber and no drilling.
