7-Setting Shower Filter: What the Settings Do and Why It Matters for Australian Skin

October 04, 2024 2 min read

A 7-setting shower filter head combines chlorine filtration with multiple spray settings — giving you both filtered water and control over water pressure and spray pattern. Here’s what the settings do and why that matters for Australian skin.

What Makes a 7-Setting Shower Filter Different

Most inline shower filters fit between your existing shower arm and shower head — they filter the water but don’t change the spray. A 7-setting filtered shower head replaces your existing shower head entirely, combining Vitamin C filtration media with 7 adjustable spray settings in one unit.

This matters because different spray settings suit different skin types and uses — a gentle mist for sensitive skin or eczema, a stronger massage setting for muscle relief, a wide rain setting for everyday showering.

The 7 Spray Settings and What They’re Good For

Setting Best For
Rain/wide spray Everyday showering, gentle coverage
Mist Sensitive skin, eczema, children
Massage/pulse Muscle relief, scalp stimulation
Jet Rinsing, targeted cleaning
Combination settings Mixed coverage for general use

Why Filtered Water Matters for Australian Skin

Australian town water is chlorinated. Chlorine strips the skin’s natural lipid barrier — the layer that keeps moisture in and irritants out. In Australia’s dry climate (particularly inland areas, Perth, and Adelaide), skin that’s already prone to dryness is more affected by daily chlorine exposure in the shower.

The Vitamin C media in our 7-setting shower head neutralises both free chlorine and chloramines — making it effective across all Australian water supplies regardless of which disinfectant your utility uses. The result is gentler water on skin and hair with every shower.

Who It Suits Best

The 7-setting filtered shower head is particularly well suited to: households with sensitive skin or eczema, people with colour-treated hair, families with young children, and anyone in a dry climate area wanting to reduce daily chlorine exposure.
