Hello, I have two questions:

1) I have extremely sensitive skin. After a shower, my skin itches a lot and I've noticed that it's probably due to limescale. In fact, adding salt to the building's filter greatly reduces itching, but that doesn't make showers completely pleasant. I understand that this type of filter doesn't reduce limescale, but do you think it can help me enjoy the showers by reducing the itching too?

2) In view of the unavailability of EM filters on Galaxus. Are filters without "EM" compatible with this product?

Yes, this filter filters limescale and is compatible with this product.

Answer

Hi, the skin and hair filter, reduce limescale and additionally filter other chemicals. It is a great filter. My wife has same problem than you and it really helped! 
As for filter compatibility I would be very careful as within the EM family filters there are different sizes. And therefore should have the correct metal tank for the correct filter you need.
