INSTALLATION & USE
Setup Instructions

- Wrap the shower arm threads with 3-4 layers of plumber's tape in a clockwise direction
- Hand-tighten the SH-WH-1 filter head onto the shower arm, then secure with a wrench using a cloth to protect the chrome finish

- Replace the filter cartridge every 6-9 months or when you notice reduced flow or chlorine odor returning
COMPATIBILITY
Fits Standard Shower Arms
The H2O International SH-WH-1 fits all standard 1/2-inch NPT shower arms found in residential and commercial applications. The chrome-plated brass ball joint allows 360-degree positioning and matches most bathroom fixtures. Replacement cartridges are available separately when filtration performance declines or after the recommended 6-9 month replacement interval.
🔧 Pro tip: If you have hard water, you may need to replace the cartridge closer to the 6-month mark rather than 9 months. Watch for reduced water pressure or a return of chlorine smell as indicators that the KDF media is saturated and needs replacement.
