The first spa-grade shower purification system.
Cuiven Monolith™ XL uses an oversized, 6.0-inch-deep rainfall body with a labyrinth flow path and multi-stage media to deliver water that feels like a mineral spring—while targeting modern contaminants most filters ignore.
The Oversized Advantage
Bigger chamber = longer contact time + more media = real purification.
Monolith™ XL's 6.0-inch-deep cylinder forces a labyrinth path through five media stages. Compared to small filters, it packs 5–10× media and increases contact time dramatically—so it can target chlorine, chloramine, heavy metals, PFAS, VOCs, pesticides, and more while maintaining excellent flow.
Flow & Feel
Engineered for the perfect rainfall experience.
Enveloping Rainfall
Wide, gentle coverage that wraps around your entire body like a warm summer storm. No harsh jets or missed spots—just complete, luxurious immersion.
Silky Water Feel
Each drop feels softer and more hydrating than ordinary shower water. The precision-engineered spray pattern creates a spa-like sensation that transforms your daily routine.
Consistent Pressure
Perfect flow from the first drop to the last. No sputtering, no pressure drops—just steady, reliable performance that maintains the luxurious experience every time.
Every drop feels intentional. Like standing under a warm summer rain, but better.
Effortless Annual Maintenance
One cartridge change per year. That's it.
The Monolith's oversized core cartridge is engineered to last a full year for most households. When it's time to replace, the process takes just minutes with no tools required.
Set up automatic delivery or get reminded when it's time to replace your core cartridge.
Inside the Cartridge
Five stages, one purpose—spa-grade water.
Silver-infused stainless mesh
Blocks sediment, keeps internals antimicrobial.
Prefilter + antimicrobial protection
Structured KDF-55 disc + clinoptilolite zeolite
Targets chlorine, H₂S, and heavy metals.
Lead, mercury, arsenic, cadmium
Activated-alumina + catalytic carbon block
Designed to reduce fluoride, PFAS, VOCs, pesticides/herbicides.
Forever chemicals, fluoride, VOCs
Far-infrared mineral ceramics
Tourmaline/germanium lowers surface tension for silkier, more hydrating feel.
Water structure enhancement
Metered Vitamin-C capsule
Sodium ascorbate neutralizes chlorine/chloramine; dosing is controlled to extend life.
Chlorine/chloramine neutralization
Oversized chamber design
6.0" deep body provides 5-10× more media contact time than standard filters, dramatically increasing filtration efficiency and extending cartridge life.
Enhanced contact time + extended filter life
Performance varies with local water. Third-party lab testing results will be published; certifications to come.
The Ultimate Filter
Designed to reduce what beauty filters ignore.

| Aspect | 316 Stainless (XL) | Titanium Signature (XL) | So what? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Density / unit weight | Heavier | ~40–45% lighter shell | Ti head ends up ~1–1.5 lb lighter overall; ~15–25% less torque on the shower arm |
| Corrosion in hot/chloride water & coastal air | Excellent | Exceptional (near-impervious) | Ti is the ultra-safe choice for coastal homes, steam showers, pool houses |
| Surface wear | Brushed steel hides light scratches; can re-brush | Raw Ti scuffs easily, but with DLC/PVD face it's harder & more scratch-resistant | Signature gets a tougher face if you pick DLC |
| Thermal feel | Similar (both low-conductivity metals) | Similar | No meaningful difference at the handle or spray |
| Sound / flow | Same | Same | No difference in shower acoustics |
| Look | Warm brushed steel | Matte grey "tool-grade" vibe; optional DLC (graphite/black) | Purely aesthetic preference |
| Warranty | 15 years | Lifetime | Titanium offers ultimate peace of mind with lifetime coverage |
| MSRP | $549 | $799 | Titanium Signature is for those who want the absolute best—lifetime warranty, lighter weight, and materials that will outlast the home itself. |
Real numbers (typical build, dry): Stainless XL ≈ 6.5–7.5 lb; Titanium XL ≈ 5.0–6.2 lb. (During use, both carry similar water mass inside.)

What Serious Filtration Looks Like
Most shower filters focus on chlorine and call it a day. Monolith was designed to address the full spectrum of what's actually in your water—including the contaminants other filters ignore entirely.

Yes, Monolith costs more upfront. But you're getting 316 stainless steel construction, 5-10× more filtration media, annual (not quarterly) replacements, and protection against contaminants other filters don't even attempt to address. For less than $300 more over three years, you get a fundamentally different level of protection—and a showerhead built to last decades, not months.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will it lower my water pressure?
No—Monolith uses a pressure-compensated regulator and a high-open-area spray face.
Does it remove fluoride/PFAS?
It's designed to reduce them using activated alumina and catalytic carbon. Exact performance depends on your water; third-party results coming.
Why a capsule and a cartridge?
Vitamin-C is consumed as it works. The capsule is metered for consistent neutralization, while the core handles long-life contaminants.
Is the interior antimicrobial?
Yes—silver-infused prefilter and flow path resist bacterial growth and biofilm.
Will it fit my shower arm?
Yes, standard ½" NPT.
