APEC 10 inch Replacement Water Filter for Chlorine, Heavy Metal and Bacteria Removal (FI-KDF55)

APEC FI-KDF85 filter cartridge has superior taste and odor removal capabilities. There are two types of media: the KDF media in this cartridge specializes in the removal of iron and hydrogen sulfide; the activated carbon is effective to remove chlorine, odor and taste. KDF process media are high-purity copper-zinc granules that reduce contaminants in water using oxidation/reduction (redox) reaction. KDF 85 process media is an effective iron (ferrous) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) removal agent that may be used alone or to protect existing water filtration/purification technologies in POE treatment of groundwater supplies. This unique, innovative and environmentally responsible media effectively reduces/removes contaminants without the use of chemicals. This is an excellent choice if you are looking for a filter that will remove a wide range of contaminants, reduce scale buildup and protect against bacteria and algae growth. The KDF media causes cellular damage to microbiological organisms which reduces bacterial growth and protects the activated carbon from fouling to extend the life of the filter.
