The Sprite HHC-2 is a replacement filter cartridge designed specifically for Sprite Handheld Shower Filter systems (such as the Sprite HH-2 and HH-WC). It uses Sprite's patented Chlorgon® filtration media along with a high-purity copper-zinc (KDF) blend to effectively reduce free chlorine, dirt, odors, hydrogen sulfide, and scale from your shower water. Unlike basic carbon filters, Chlorgon® works effectively in both hot and cold water, making it ideal for handheld shower applications.

The Sprite HHC-2 cartridge has a filtration life of approximately 6 months or 15,000 gallons of water, whichever comes first. For the average household, this typically equates to twice-yearly replacement. Replacing the cartridge on schedule ensures continued chlorine reduction and optimal water quality. If you notice the return of chlorine odor or reduced performance, it's time to swap in a new HHC-2 cartridge.

The HHC-2 replacement cartridge is engineered to fit Sprite Handheld Shower Filter systems, including the Sprite HH-2 Handheld Shower Filter and the Sprite HH-WC Wall-Mounted Handheld Shower Filter. It is not interchangeable with Sprite's inline or high-output shower filter cartridges (such as the HOC or SL series). Always verify your Sprite model before ordering to ensure proper fitment.

Yes, the HHC-2 contains Sprite's proprietary Chlorgon® filtration media combined with KDF-55. Chlorgon® is specifically formulated to convert free chlorine into a harmless chloride through a chemical reaction that remains effective at the high temperatures found in shower water — where standard activated carbon loses efficiency. This makes the HHC-2 far more effective than carbon-only cartridges for reducing chlorine, chloramines byproducts, and associated skin/hair irritation in hot shower conditions.

Replacing the HHC-2 is a tool-free process. First, unscrew the shower head housing from the hose connection. Remove the spent cartridge and discard it. Insert the new HHC-2 cartridge with the correct flow direction (arrow pointing toward the shower head). Reattach the housing hand-tight — do not over-tighten. Finally, run warm water through the shower for 1–2 minutes to flush any loose media fines before use. Your Sprite handheld shower will immediately deliver filtered, chlorine-reduced water.
