When visiting the AquaBliss website, you are met with a plethora of shower filters making it difficult to decide which one is right for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When having too many options to choose from, you can quickly have analysis paralysis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’re here to help cut through the cruft and help you quickly and easily compare each model side-by-side and make a decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comparison<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Luckily AquaBliss did much of the hard work for you and put together this nice comparison table that highlights all the differences between their models:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While seeing the filtration, function, and installation compared side-by-side is helpful, we wanted to call out a few key points between each filtration system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chlorine Reduction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

AquaBliss states that all of their shower filters are effective at removing chlorine. Unfortunately, we cannot verify the exact % reduction as AquaBliss does not publish this data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, based on user reviews across all models, the reduction in chlorine appears to be significant, as homeowners have been fairly happy with the results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Added Vitamins & Minerals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"shower<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If the reason you are buying a shower filter is for skin and hair benefits, then consider the AquaBliss SF100<\/a> or SF400. In the SF100 and SF400, AquaBliss adds a few different vitamins and minerals within the multi-stage filtration system. Specifically, you will find zeolite, vitamin C, tourmaline, and magnetic energy beads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The SF220 and SF500 do not have these added benefits; therefore, if this is something you are looking for, consider one of the lower-end models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Size<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

All the models that AquaBliss makes are more or less the same size at about 4.5″ in length with a diameter of 3.3″. While the dimensions aren’t necessarily overly large compared to other shower filters, any of the AquaBliss models will significantly lower your shower head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So before you purchase, have the tallest member of your household stand in the shower and measure 4.5″ of extra length onto the shower head. This will give you a pretty good idea of how much lower the shower head will hang with one of these filters installed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ideally, you should have at least 6″ clearance between the top of the tallest person’s head and the shower head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finishes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The SF100, SF220, and SF400 are only available in a chrome finish. While this shouldn’t be a problem for most bathrooms, should you have a white, brass, or brushed nickel finish, the SF100, SF220, and SF400 will stand out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With that being said, SF500 does account for a few different finishes as it is available in chrome, oil-rubbed bronze, and brushed nickel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Price (Initial Costs & Maintenance Costs)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Given that there are several models to choose from, one would think the price range will be just as diverse. However, that is not the case with AquaBliss, as all of their models fall between $35 and $38.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, the replacement cartridge is also nearly equal in price and ranges from just $15.99 to $18.99. AquaBliss recommends replacing the cartridges across all models once every six months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
