20" Big Blue Dechlorinator
Complete system - includes housing, initial cartridge, mounting brackets and spanner
The 20" Big Blue water filter is intended for whole house or industrial applications where high flow rates are required. The housings feature larger cartridges than our typical drinking water systems, thus enabling them to offer similar filtration performance, but without a noticeable drop in flow. 20" Models are generally suitable for most domestic installations, whereas 10" models are more suited to baths, apartments or houses with single occupants.
The carbon filter that removes chlorine is particularly suited to people that have allergies to chlorine, or have medical conditions such as psoriasis or eczema, which are aggravated by it. Bathing and showering actually draws moisture from the skin and chlorine helps increase the rate of this (in effect making your skin drier). Some people also believe that chlorine kills off some of the bacteria on your skin that may actually help with such conditions, thus preventing your body's (and nature's) natural responses to them.
Ingestion of Chlorine is also suspected to excaerbate some skin conditions, since some believe the chlorine in tap water (added as a disinfectant) destroys naturally occuring gut/bowel bacteria which help with skin and bone regeneration.
Our carbon filters, once installed, mean that your bath, shower, sinks, appliances (washing machines etc.) will all be free from the vast majority (in excess of 95%) of the typical amount of chlorine in your domestic supply. We can offer a specialist version of this system to specifically target Chloramine (Thames Water customers, and all of Scotland at present). Chloramine is an Ammonia/Chlorine compound, and whilst the 10" model can deal with this, really a 20" model is preferred (giving a longer contact time).
When compared to the cost of a shower filter (which are typically around £40) this is a much better solution.
