Recent studies have highlighted the importance of keeping your shower head clean. According to a CNN report, a new study suggests that potentially disease-causing germs can get trapped in shower heads and grow into biofilm, or coats of slime that deliver a bacteria blast along with your hot water. Shower heads are the ideal environment for bacteria that cause lung diseases to thrive, as they are dark, wet, and warm. In fact, levels of these bacteria are more than 100-fold higher than levels found in the pre-shower water, according to the researchers.
Similarly, a CONSUMER REPORTS study points to shower heads as a bacterial breeding ground. When a shower is on, pathogens accompany the water droplets that become suspended in the air, and these droplets are easily inhaled deeply into the lungs. Dr. Charles Daley, of National Jewish Hospital in Denver, further confirms that the bacteria in shower heads can cause lung disease.
The ABC network also warns that the shower head makes it especially easy for potentially harmful bacteria to have a direct route into your respiratory system. A DAILY NEWS article cites a U.S. study finding that many shower heads are dirty and may be covering you in a daily dose of bacteria that could make you sick.
Furthermore, the CHICAGO TRIBUNE reports that dangerous bacteria may be spraying out of your shower head and right into your face, according to a new study. The study found that shower heads spray tiny, aerosolized particles that can be inhaled into the lungs.
NEWSMAX also reports that researchers have determined dirty shower heads in the home can spread a dangerous type of bacterial lung infection.
To address this issue, antimicrobial and anti-clog nozzles can be a solution. Ordinary shower heads often lose water pressure due to clogging as blocked jet passages restrict water flow. Our shower nozzles are made with Revolutionary Microban Antimicrobial Technology that inhibits the growth of Mold, Mildew and Bacteria. Their flexible rubber design allows easy rub-clean removal of calcium and mineral deposits, helping your shower head remain clean and clog-free for superior performance.
Keeping your shower head clean is essential for the health and hygiene of your entire family. Microban Antimicrobial Technology works 24/7 for Life to help prevent the growth of mold, mildew and bacteria inside and around shower nozzles. This invisible protection also helps extend the life of your shower head by inhibiting the degradation of the nozzle surfaces over time.
In conclusion, the research strongly suggests that maintaining a clean shower head is crucial for your family's well-being. With the latest state-of-the-art features and Microban Protection technology, you can enjoy a cleaner, healthier, and longer-lasting shower experience.
