Our verdict

A screw-in shower filter that adds chlorine and odor reduction to the showerhead you already have. It does not replace the showerhead, and the filter cartridge is a recurring part.

Overview

Kohler makes the Aquifer as an attachment that screws onto an exposed shower arm and works with your existing showerhead. Ultra filtration reduces chlorine and odor and controls scale in the water before it reaches the head.

The reason to buy is adding filtration without swapping the showerhead, with a clear flow and TDS limit. The limit is that it needs an exposed shower arm and the filter reaches the end of its life on a schedule.

Who it's for

People with dry hair or skin who attribute it to shower water can add this between the arm and the head. Owners of hard or high-TDS supplies should confirm the limit first.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Works with existing showerhead
  • Reduces chlorine and odor
  • Large gallon capacity
  • Compact, plastic body
Cons
  • Needs an exposed shower arm
  • Filter life is limited
  • Not a showerhead by itself
  • Adds height below the arm

Performance notes

Water passes through an ultra filtration stage before it reaches the showerhead, which cuts chlorine and odor and controls scale. Flow tops out at the listed rate, so a higher-flow head will be limited by the filter. Capacity and the time-based filter life decide when it needs replacing, whichever comes first.
