The Hot Water Guard™

The Hot Water Guard™ Engineered Hot Water Filtration for vapor reduction and appliance protection

✨ Better hot water for hair and skin—One Tank at a Time ✨

🚿 Why The Hot Water Guard™ Changes Everything

You already know that clean drinking water matters—but hot water is used differently throughout the home, including bathing, showering, laundry, and dishwashing.

In Shreveport and Bossier City, municipal water is commonly treated with chloramines, a disinfectant blend of chlorine and ammonia. More stable than chlorine, chloramines behave differently when water is heated, influencing both vapor release and interaction with plumbing and appliances.

When chloraminated water is heated, it releases vaporized disinfection byproducts (TTHMs, HAAs) that

The Hot Water Guard™ stops these effects before they start.

🛠️ What It Is

The Hot Water Guard™ is a multi-stage, high-capacity filtration system installed on the cold water supply line feeding your water heater. By treating water before it is heated, the system is designed to address hot water–specific concerns related to vapor release, skin and hair contact, and long-term appliance wear.

Rather than relying on point-of-use filters, the Hot Water Guard™ conditions all hot water at the source, supporting a more consistent hot water experience throughout the home while helping reduce stress on water heaters and downstream plumbing.

This system is configured with Shreveport-Bossier’s chloramine-treated municipal water in mind and installed to match household size and usage demand.

🧲 Stage 2 – Media Reactor: Redox + Catalytic Carbon + FIR Mineral Polish (20” Big Blue or Tanks for larger Households)

📚 Bottom to Top Media Layout:

🪨 Gravel Bed — Stabilizes flow, prevents media channeling
🔧 KDF-85 — Reduces chloramines, iron, hydrogen sulfide, arsenic
🔩 KDF-55 — Reduces lead, mercury, nickel, and bacterial growth
⚛️ CX-MCA Catalytic Carbon — Removes chloramines and chlorine with high efficiency
🥥 Coconut Shell GAC — Polishes taste and captures residual carbon fines
💎 Tourmaline Layer — Emits FIR (far-infrared radiation), improves skin hydration, releases negative ions
🧵 Top Mesh Pad — Locks media in place, controls turbulence

Average observed reduction in total chlorine and chloramine: 90–95%

🛁 Optional Add-On: The Bathtub Shield™

The Bathtub Shield™ is a dedicated filtration add-on designed specifically for bathtub use, where water contact is prolonged and exposure is primarily through the skin.

Installed on the cold-water supply feeding the tub, it focuses on improving water quality during baths by reducing disinfectant residuals before they reach the tub. This makes it a practical option for households where bathing comfort and skin contact are a priority.

🛡️ Why some homeowners choose the Bathtub Shield™:

Targets water used for soaking and extended skin contact
Improves how bath water feels on the skin
Complements whole-home or hot water filtration systems
Simple, localized solution for bath-specific concerns

The Bathtub Shield™ is an optional enhancement, not a requirement. It’s designed for families who place added emphasis on bathing comfort and want a focused solution where it matters most.
