Rainshow'r CQ-1000 Shower Filter

The CQ-1000 Rainshower filter is a simple but advanced shower filter. This high quality ABS housing is engineered to be long lasting and durable, making the CQ-1000 the most trouble-free shower filter available. Here is how it works. As chlorinated water flows through the unit the dissimilar metals in KDF, (copper and zinc), create a galvanic or electrolytic reaction which cause the two chlorine ions to combine with a zinc ion to form a harmless zinc chloride. KDF does not hold the chlorine, it changes chlorine from an element into a harmless compound. The CQ-1000 internal jet cone has been designed to eliminate the need for back flushing.

Rainshower Employes KDF 55

KDF is comprised of 50% copper and 50% zinc. It removes free chlorine by reversing the electrochemical process that originally separated the chlorine from sodium in a brine solution. The chlorine is recombine with calcium to form a soluble chloride, which washes out of the filter and is harmless to humans. KDF not only offers superior dechlorination capabilities, it lasts much longer than carbon media does. Depending upon the filter model, the amount of KDF, and the water source a KDF shower filter should last seven to nine months.  KDF is also bacteriostatic (inhibits reproduction), and tends to reduce or eliminate fungus and mildew build up in the shower.

Rainshower Employes Crystaline Quartz  

Rainshower also incorporates crystaline quartz technology. The purpose of washed and sun dried quartz crystals is to help "energize" the water by reducing the water's surface tension. This allows for an increase in the sudsuing and lathering of soaps and shampoos. The water has a "lighter" feel, similar to the feeling of softened water. Rainshow'r introduced crystal to the general market through the CQ-1000 shower filter series in March 1998 and to its knowledge was the first to do so. Because of the electron movement caused in shocking the crystal an electrical charge is generated which Rainshow'r believes reduces the size of water molecule clusters.
