Description:

Filter combines .75lbs. of KDF-55 media, a compound of Copper and Zinc, and GAC (Granulated Activated Carbon) and works especially well on Chlorine taste and odors, while adding all the reduction-oxidation benefits of the KDF compound. The water filter cartridge utilizes KDF filtration media, GAC (granular activated carbon) and 3 stages of polypropylene sediment filtration. KDF Process Media are high-purity, granulated copper and zinc-based alloys that filter water through a process based upon the principle of redox (Oxidation-Reduction). Originally, KDF was shorthand for Kinetic Degradation Fluxion. We can explain redox like this: KDF Fluid Treatment's unique combination of copper and zinc creates an electro-chemical reaction. During this reaction, electrons are transferred between molecules, and new compounds are created. The GAC media helps to further reduce chlorine taste and odors.

Features:
  • Removes Chlorine Taste and Odor from Chlorinated water

  • Leaves beneficial trace minerals, such as calcium and magnesium, intact

  • Treats thousands of gallons (depending on water quality)

  • Fits any industry-standard housing using 9 3/4" length by 2 1/2" to 2 3/4" w. cartridges

  • Filter combines .75lbs. of KDF-55 media (copper & zinc) & Coconut Shell Granulated Activated Carbon

5The way to go!  Apr 20, 2011
By Ray in Queens
KDF/GAC filters have been around a long time. They are vastly superior to other filters. I have, in addition to the under the counter water filter with a KDF/GAC cartridge, a whole house sediment filter using a 10 micron pleated filter. The sediment filter keeps material from ending up in the KDF/GAF filter and thereby extending the KDG/GAC filter's useful life.
The current KDF/GAC filter now in use was installed in 1999. It is rated at 20,000 gallons. (This filter can easily do twice that amount and still be 93% to 99% efficient depending on what substances are being removed.) At 20,000 gallons, that would mean 4,000 days at 5 gallons per day for drinking and cooking purposes. That is just short of 11 years. We don't use 5 gallons per day for making coffee, cooking food and drinking purposes and this filter is still going strong and doing an excellent job. You may use tap water to rinse food for preparation, just don't cook with it.
You will know when the KDF/GAC filter's life is coming to an end when the water flow becomes weak. Even then it is still working, but time to replace the filter.
