Saigon Sam Part 3: Shower Water Detoxification With Aquasana Filter

Sunday, October 18th, 2009

Guide to safe showering in questionable tap water. This was filmed in Ho Chi Minh City, but it applies generally. Use swimming goggles and an Aquasana shower filter to protect yourself from common urban water contaminants, such as manganese vapor, chlorine, chloramine, iron, lead, pesticide, and industrial effluent.

Note that the Aquasana doesn’t produce potable water! It only reduces the toxicity enough to mitigate skin burns and inhalated carcinogens.

You can buy an Aquasana and filter cartidges online in the US, but not many other places. Filters typically last 6 months. You can tell that it’s time to change it when your skin starts to burn post-shower, as is typical with unfiltered tap water.

A gender-changing pipe segment (such as the blue plastic one in this video) may be necessary to connect the filter apparatus to your shower outlet. Be sure to seal the ends with nylon plumbers’ tape. Generally, a pipe diameter change will not be necessary.

Inevitably, the goggles will come loose, allowing water to flow into the eyes. Eye wash (distilled water — not contact lens solution) will provide relief post-shower. Eye wash is not, to my knowledge, available in Vietnam.

Will a Healthy Home Solution whole house water filter reduce heavy metals in your tap water?

It is easy for a home water filtration system to address the problem of heavy metals in your water but only if done properly. Pure Elements focuses on this very problem with each of their Healthy Home Solution water filters. Iron, lead, mercury, arsenic, zinc and silver are greatly reduced due to the design of this water filter and conditioner. Many of our competitors DO NOT have this component in their filters. Their systems lack the ability to pull out heavy metals. While doing research on whole home water filters, be sure to make sure that the filter you purchase has the capability of reducing heavy metals.
