Better Skin. Better Hair. Better Shower.
Clean water, stronger pressure, and the first filter that neutralizes hard water.

- Softer, more hydrated skin
- Less breakage, stronger hair in 2 weeks
- 2.5× the water pressure of a normal showerhead
- Uses 30% less water than a normal showerhead
The problem
What's actually coming out of your showerhead.
Hard water minerals. Chlorine. Heavy metals. You filter what you drink. This is what you stand in.
- Hard-water minerals that coat your skin and hair
- Chlorine that strips your skin's natural oils
- Heavy metals your tap water carries
Sound familiar?
It was never your products.
Thinning hair. Dry skin. Eczema. Acne that won't quit. You've changed the shampoo, the serum, the moisturizer. You never changed the water.
Meet Chelate-X
Not just a filter. A total shower upgrade.
Three settings on one button. Pressure that doesn't fade. And a filter that finally does something about the hard water everyone else ignores.
Every shower filter fights chlorine. Almost none of them touch the minerals.
Chelate-X
The first showerhead built to neutralize hard water.
Like a water softener. Without a whole-house installation.
If you've looked into hard water filters before, you thought you'd need a whole-house softening system. A tank the size of a fridge. Regular plumber visits. And heavy bags of salt taking up an entire corner of your storage.
Hard water minerals are sticky. We make them slippery.
They're covered in microscopic barbs that catch on everything. That film on your arms. Hair that squeaks but never feels clean. Spots on the glass.
Our chelating filter wraps every mineral in a microscopic bubble. Smooth. Slippery. So they slide past your skin, past your hair, and straight down the drain.
One unit. One purchase.
Everyone filters chlorine. Almost nobody touches the minerals — and the ones that try want you to plumb in a whole-house system. Chelate-X does it at the showerhead, once.

How it works
What else it catches.
Chelation handles the minerals. Three more stages handle everything else in your tap water.
Three ways to shower
Three settings. One button.
Rainfall to stand under after a long day. Jetting to work into your scalp. A mixed spray for everything in between. Just push the button to access all three.
The pressure
A filter that adds pressure instead of killing it.
The EcoSurge™ Plate pushes water through with 2.5× pressure while using 30% less water. And a ring of individual nozzles around the head means nothing clogs.
Real results
Most filters die the moment hot water hits them.
They keep running, they just stop filtering. Chelate-X is engineered to survive it: 90 days of filtration before your next replacement.
Independently lab tested: 99.8% PFOS · 99.7% PFOA · 98.5% chlorine · 99.5% lead · 98.4% hexavalent chromium
Engineered to survive hot water.
Our story
Built by a dermatologist who got tired of filters that didn't work.
Dr. Lena Hale tested eleven of them with real lab work. Every one died the moment hot water hit it. So she built her own with her brother, who designs water systems for hospitals, and tested it with over a thousand families before it ever had a name.

"I live in Phoenix where the water is very hard"
I live in Phoenix where the water is very hard. This left me never feeling fully clean after a shower. But day ONE after getting my unchemed I could tell a major difference. The water felt so smooth and clean. I was amazed! It even left my hair feeling softer without conditioner.
"My scalp cleared up in a new apartment"
When I moved into my new apartment I had a really difficult time adjusting to the hard mineral water. My scalp got red bumps, wouldn't stop itching, and even my skin became irritated. Not only did it help increase the pressure, but it also resolved all of my skin issues.
"No more scraping the shower walls"
I have hard well water that would leave residue on my shower walls that I would need a razor to scrape off. Now I don't have to clean like that anymore.
"A world of difference in 2 weeks"
I have had issues with our water since I moved in here — it's hard well water. My skin was always dry and itchy and my hair wouldn't grow anymore. I ordered this shower head and it's made a world of difference in just 2 weeks. No longer a lot of hair in my brush and my skin is soft again.
"Baby soft skin, frizz-free hair"
I live in a very hard water area, and after this, my skin is baby soft and my hair is smooth and frizz-free!

Questions
Good to know.
Will it fit my shower?+
Yes — fits 100% of standard showers. Adapter included, works on virtually every standard shower arm in North America. Five-minute install, no tools.
Will it lower my water pressure?+
The opposite. The EcoSurge™ Plate delivers 2.5× the water pressure of a normal showerhead while using less water. And because the nozzles sit in a ring around the head instead of a single plate, there's nothing to clog — so it stays just as strong months in.
Is this a water softener?+
No. A softener strips minerals out using salt and needs a plumber and a tank. Chelate-X leaves the minerals in the water and neutralizes what makes them stick — in the one place it touches your skin and hair.
How will it help my skin and hair?+
By neutralizing hard water minerals and filtering the chlorine and heavy metals in your tap water, Chelate-X helps your skin and hair hold their natural moisture. Many people notice softer skin and smoother hair over the first few weeks.
How often do I replace the filter?+
About every 90 days, And unlike units that jam shut, ours stays a simple twist: twist off, drop in the new cartridge, twist back on.
Will it leak?+
No. Quality O-rings at every connection and plumber's tape in the box for a tight, leak-proof install. Durable ABS housing, the same material used in Lego.
