How it works

Remove the showerhead

We unthread the showerhead to expose the arm, clean the threads, and apply fresh tape before installing the filter body.

Install the filter

We thread the filter housing onto the arm, tighten until snug, then thread the showerhead onto the filter outlet the same way.

Test flow and connections

We run the shower and check both the arm-to-filter and filter-to-head connections, confirming there's no drip and that flow feels adequate.

We can help

Problems we fix

Filter that reduces water pressure noticeably because it has a restrictive internal screen
Connections that drip because the filter housing plastic doesn't hold tape as well as metal
Filter that adds so much weight to the arm it begins to sag over time
Wrong thread size filter purchased (3/4-inch shower arm is standard but not universal)

Shower Head Filter Install — FAQ

Will a shower filter reduce my water pressure?

A slight reduction is normal with any inline filter. High-quality filters minimize this. If your water pressure is already on the low side, choose a filter rated for low-pressure applications.

Do you provide the filter, or do I need to purchase it?

Shower head filters are a personal choice depending on what you want filtered — chlorine, chloramine, hard minerals, sediment. Purchase the filter that fits your needs and we'll install it.

How often does the filter cartridge need to be changed?

Most shower filters are rated for 3–6 months of normal use. We'll note the install date and cartridge type so you have a reference for the next change.
