7 Best Shower Filters of 2026 Are WIRED-Tested and -Approved
Matthew KorfhageGearJul 30, 2026 7:33 AMThe Best Shower Filters for Removing Chlorine and PFASI tested leading filtered showerheads, from Weddell Duo to Rorra to Canopy. The answer, according to WIRED reporting, is not always encouraging. My favorite filtered showerhead for chloramine-treated systems, the Rorra Filtered Showerhead ($199), pairs handsome design with effectiveness and longevity, as shown by both WIRED's own tests and publicly available, independent lab testing (a rarity among the often nontransparent makers of filtered showerheads).
