AquaMedix LLC says that, in tests, Legionella bacteria was not detected from any water samples collected from its HandShower filter outlets during or after 90 day evaluations.
The current market standard for filter replacement is 30 to 60 days.
The study was led by Dr Janet Stout and Dr Radisav Vidic, at the Special Pathogens Laboratory in Pittsburgh, PA and the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Pittsburgh. The objective of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of AquaMedix CleanSpray HandShower filters for the removal of waterborne Legionella bacteria and heterotrophic bacteria. AquaMedix funded this research to confirm the performance of its products prior to market launch. – [http://www.filtsep.com/]
