Destroyer KDF Shower Filter
Reduces chlorine in your shower, hot or cold
Genuine KDF 55 media • White finish • Fits any standard shower arm • Made in the USA
Your Berkey Covers Drinking Water. This Covers Your Shower.
The Destroyer reduces chlorine in your shower water with genuine KDF 55 media, so showers lose that pool smell and feel easier on your skin and hair.
It installs between your shower arm and your existing shower head in a few minutes, with no plumber and no tools beyond the Teflon tape in the box.
It matters more than most people think. Up to half of your daily chlorine exposure can come from showering, because hot water turns chlorine into vapor you breathe in.
Key Benefits
Up to 99% Less Chlorine
No more pool smell in the shower, and less of the dry, tight feeling afterward.
Softer Skin and Hair
Less chlorine means less dryness and irritation. Owners tell us their hair feels softer within days.
Built for Hot Water
KDF media keeps working in hot showers, where carbon-only filters lose ground.
Save Every Year
Keep the housing and just buy a refill cartridge each year. It costs far less than a new filter and keeps plastic out of the trash.
What It Reduces
Chlorine
Up to 99% reduction, the main reason to filter your shower.
Heavy Metals
Lead, mercury, copper, arsenic and cadmium.
Iron and Scale
Iron, lime and calcium that leave stains and buildup.
THMs and VOCs

Installs in Minutes
Fits any standard 1/2 inch shower arm. Teflon tape is included.
- Unscrew your shower head and clean the old tape off the shower arm
- Wrap the included Teflon tape around the threads 2 to 3 times
- Screw the filter onto the arm, then your shower head onto the filter
- Run the water about 20 seconds to flush. Slight graying at first is normal
Buy the Filter Once, Then Just Refill
After the first year, you only buy the Destroyer refill cartridge, not a whole new filter. Chrome, white and black all use the same cartridge.
- Lower cost every year after the first
- Less waste, since the housing stays on your shower
- Replace the cartridge every 25,000 gallons or 12 months, whichever comes first
- Swaps in by hand in a minute, mesh screen side up
Shower Filter Questions
Why do I need a shower filter if I have a Berkey?
Your Berkey filters the water you drink. Your shower runs straight tap water over your skin and hair, chlorine included. The Destroyer covers that side of your water.
Does it come with a shower head?
No. It installs between your shower arm and your existing shower head. You get the filter with a cartridge installed, plus Teflon tape.
How often do I replace the cartridge?
Every 25,000 gallons or 12 months, whichever comes first. Once the media gets wet it has about a one year life, even with light use.
Does it reduce fluoride?
No. Fluoride is very hard to reduce at shower flow rates, so be wary of shower filters that claim it.
Will it lower my water pressure?
It shouldn't. It flows up to 1.8 gallons per minute, the standard for most shower heads.
Will it fit my shower?
It fits any standard 1/2 inch shower arm, including handheld shower heads with a standard fitting. It also works with softened water.
