The power of our vitamin c shower filter
Our Core Collection

why filter your shower water with vitamin c?
It's a great question and one we hear often. Australia's water is some of cleanest in the world to drink by international standards. However what often goes unspoken, is that to ensure our water is safe to drink, up to 50 chemicals, including chlorine, are added during the treatment process. Our water then travels through old pipes to our homes, along the journey it can collect heavy metals like lead and copper.
This combination of chemicals and heavy metals that can be found in your shower water, is the reason we recommend using filtering your water.
Read on to learn more about how our Vitamin-C Shower Filter can stop these unwanted impurities in their tracks.

The core stages our filter
Our Fettle Filter is made up of 15 key stages, with each stage playing a vital role in the filtration process. The core stages worth shouting out are:
PPF (5 Micron): Removes larger particles such as sediment, rust, and dirt for cleaner water.
Calcium Sulfite: Effectively removes chlorine at high temperatures (we know some you like your showers extra hot).
Coconut Activated Carbon: Adsorbs impurities, odours, and harmful chemicals.
KDF55: Neutralises chlorine, mercury, and other heavy metals, while also inhibiting the growth of bacteria, algae, and fungi inside the filter.
Alkaline Ceramic Balls: Balances pH levels, creating mildly alkaline water
Vitamin C: Neutralises chlorine and provides antioxidant benefits for skin and hair
Far-IR Mineralisation Balls: Infuses your water with far-infrared energy, improving hydration and skin absorption

We put the power of our vitamin c filter to the test
Seeing is believing... we put out vitamin c powered shower filter to the test by placing chlorine testing tablets in a glass of Fettle Filtered shower water vs unfiltered shower water. The proof is in the pink with the unfiltered water clearly showing high amounts of chlorine, whilst the Fettle Filter is able to remove 95% of chlorine from the water. You can see the full video of us running the test on our Instagram page.
Chlorine is just one of many chemicals our filter is able significantly reduce from your shower water.

FAQs
How often do I need to change the vitamin c filter?
Our Fettlers (users) typically see the best results when they change their Shower Filters every 3 months (90 days).
Why so frequently compared to other brands?
Think of our filter like an elite sports team made up of 15 star players, each one with a specific role: defender, playmaker, goalie, striker. Some are built for endurance, others for speed. But after 90 days of back-to-back games (aka your daily showers), a few of those MVPs start to slow down.
Sure, some players could probably push through longer, but the whole team's performance drops if even a few aren't pulling their weight. And we’re not in the business of letting your water quality ride the bench.
Other brands? They might have smaller squads or keep the same tired lineup in for months. But that means lower performance, patchy coverage, and water that’s just… meh.
At Fettle Effect, we swap in a fresh team every 90 days to keep your water clean, your skin glowing, and your showers winning.
