Aqualux Dechlorinating Shower Filter
74.95$ incl. VAT
While all the sun and salty ocean water here in Costa Rica blesses us with their energy and negative ions, this magic combo can also result in frizzy hair. Chlorine exposure from pools and shower further dries out the hair, the scalp and the skin – on top of increasing our toxic through inhalation as chlorine evaporates in hot water. Luckily, having a good shower filter helps solving these problems.
Unlike other shower filters, The Hydro Guard™ Aqualux Dechlorinating Shower Filter doesn’t stop at basic chlorine reduction. With its BioCeramic technology it balances the pH of water for softer, silky smooth skin and hair, longer lasting hair color, less dry, itchy, flaky skin and scalp. Through its four stage process the Aqualux truly is able to offer you a luxurious shower experience.
The Hydro Guard™ Aqualux has a 4 stage filtration process. More specifically, it utilizes:
- Coconut Shell Carbon
- KDF Chlorine Scavenging media
- BioCeramic pH Balancing spheres
- Sediment filtration
Unlike in Canada or some sates in the US, Costa Rica does not add chloramine in the water. For this reason, you don’t need to pay for a filter feature that is simply not necessary in this country!

HARMS OF CHLORINE
Scientific studies have linked chlorine exposure to potentially harmful health conditions. Chlorine evaporates in hot water and when inhaled goes directly into our bloodstream. The Aqualux shower filter reduces chlorine vapors so you and your family can breath easier!
WATER QUALITY IN COSTA RICA
I chose Aqualux for my family having researched water quality in Costa Rica. A quick search on google will return a lot of results suggesting what a great water quality Costa Rica has. This is true only relatively speaking , i.e. if you compare it to the water across many states in the US, many industrialized mega cities etc. It does not mean you should shower in water that’s not filtered, or – even worse- drink tap water if you’re connected to ASADA or AyA. You can find the conclusions of my research on Costa Rica’s water quality here.

The filter works great except that for us it only lasted for a month. As discussed with Milda, this is probably due to the high mineral content in our tap water.

I appreciate no longer smelling chlorine in my shower!
