About Sprite Shower Filters
Sprite is a California-based company that has been designing and manufacturing shower filters since 1987. With more than 20 U.S. and international patents to its credit, Sprite products have a solid reputation for sturdy construction, user-friendly performance, and innovative aesthetics. They are well designed to prevent common failures in chlorine shower filters such as clogging, pressure drop and cracks in housings.
KDF shower filters plus Chlorgon®
