How it works

One head, one cartridge in the handle, one refill routine.

Fit. Shower. Refill.

01Fit it

Check your shower, then fit Waterhush on its own 1.5 m hose. Keep your old head for when you move.

02Shower

Water runs through the fitted cartridge on its way to the 10 jets. It reduces free chlorine.

03Refill

A new cartridge every 3 months, or every 2 for 2+ people. On the plan or one-off.

The kit, taken apart

Three parts, one job.

A round head with 10 spray patterns, a cartridge that reduces free chlorine, and a chrome-plated handle that hides it. Keep the head; change only the cartridge.

Frequently asked questions

Will it lower my water pressure?

Water runs through the cartridge in the handle, and any cartridge adds a little resistance. How it feels depends on your system: mains-pressure showers have more to spare than gravity-fed ones. We make no pressure claims either way, so if your shower is already weak, keep your old head and hose until you’ve tried it.

Can I use it on an electric shower?

Not unless your shower’s manufacturer confirms in writing that a filter head can be fitted to your model. Electric showers heat water as it flows, and many makers allow only their own heads and hoses. If in doubt, keep the original head. Check your shower in 3 questions.

Will it soften my water or stop limescale?

No. Waterhush isn’t a water softener and won’t change how hard your water is or stop limescale. It reduces free chlorine, and that’s the only claim we make. If hardness is your main concern, a plumbed-in softener is the right tool.

How often do I change the cartridge?

We suggest every 3 months for one person, or every 2 months when two or more people share the shower. It’s a suggestion, not a promise of how long a cartridge lasts. The cartridge sits out of sight in the handle, so go by the date; on the refill plan the next one simply arrives on time.

Ready when you are.
