Application
For homes on mains/town water supply with chlorinated chemical treated water, for the reduction of chemicals and heavy metals (will not remove fluoride) up to 98%
Key Contaminants and Substances Removed
1. Chlorine and Chloramine
- Chlorine: The activated carbon in the filter is highly effective at removing chlorine, which improves taste and odor.
- Chloramine: KDF media are particularly effective at reducing chloramine, a disinfectant commonly used in municipal water supplies.
2. Heavy Metals
- Lead: KDF media can reduce lead levels through a redox reaction, converting soluble lead ions into insoluble lead, which is then trapped in the filter.
- Mercury: Similar to lead, KDF media can reduce mercury levels by converting soluble mercury ions into insoluble forms.
- Other Metals: KDF media also reduce levels of other heavy metals like arsenic, cadmium, chromium, and nickel.
3. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)
- Common VOCs: Including chemicals like benzene, toluene, and xylene, often found in industrial pollutants.
4. Herbicides and Pesticides
- Agricultural Chemicals: The activated carbon component is effective at adsorbing various herbicides and pesticides that can contaminate water supplies.
5. Taste and Odor Compounds
- Organic Compounds: Natural organic matter and other compounds that cause bad taste and odor are effectively removed by the activated carbon.
6. Sediment and Particulates
- Sediment Filtration: The GAC component can trap particulates and sediment, although it is not primarily designed for this purpose compared to a dedicated sediment filter.
7. Bacteria and Algae Control
- Antimicrobial Properties: KDF media have bacteriostatic properties, meaning they inhibit the growth of bacteria, algae, and fungi within the filter, preventing biofilm formation.
