HOW THEY WORK

The types of filtration include 'pore opening', magnetics, catalytic action using reduction-oxidation, electroplating, ion exchange, reshaping of hardness ions and adsorption. An environment harmful to bacteria, algae and fungus is created. All filter media have been certified by the NSF.

* Activated Alumina - the resin most effective for removing fluoride. Proven effective and safe.

* Kdf 85 - a highly effective filter media which is a combination of copper and zinc. Especially effective against chloramine. Also highly effective at filtering chemically-based contaminants, heavy metals and chlorine. Kdf is bacteriostatic, preventing bacteria from growing in the carbon or your water.

* Activated Coconut Carbon - filters chlorine, organic-based contaminants like hormones and organic based herbicides. Leaves good tasting water.

* Catalytic Carbon - most effective against chloramines and volatile organic compounds, iron, gases, bad odors and taste.

Life expectancy is two years, then you replace the entire unit.
