Jonathan Beauty Water Shower Purification Filter Review

  • This filter is made up of Amorphous Titanium Silicate, a potassium charged zeolite, coated to a granular media made from carbonized coconut shells
  • During the first stage of filtration, chlorine is reduced and the water is pre-conditioned be neutralizing agents
  • In the second stage of filtration, the filter eliminates VOC’s and synthetic chemicals, including heavy metals commonly found in tap water such as copper & lead
  • As the system removes heavy metals, it replaces them with healthy potassium ions to balance pH.

Feedback & Overview
Actual Customer Feedback:
"I must say I was impressed with the packaging that Scott from Zorbit designed. However if you can live without it and want to save some mula, you can do a search on Amazon for the Aquasana AQ-4100. "Beauty Water" is the same filter with Johnathan's name printed on the side. You will notice an improvment in your skin and hair with either filter."

"I purchased a Beauty Water Shower Purification System and have used it about 5 times now with fantastic results."

"Let's first understand that Jonathan Anton has simply put his name on the Aquasauna shower filter which has been around for years (See Consumer Digest Magazine's Best Buy Award 2003, 2004, 2005). I do applaud this wonderful filter for its effectiveness, but do not see the sense of marketing an environmentally-oriented product to the Jonathan aerosol-pumping consumer. What would improve every city's water quality overall is in fact using less of the ingredients found in Jonathan product."
Portion of Actual User Comment on Amazon

This is an excellent product that is well received by the market. The Aquasana AQ-4100 gets our vote as its replacement cartridge cost is $42.00 as opposed to the Jonathan Beauty Water filter that costs $55.00. Performance between both filters is identical.
