Carbon and KDF ® water filters are recommended by Dr. Andrew Weil in his book Eight Weeks to Optimum Health. He also recommends using a KDF shower filter stating "the effects of chlorinated water may include an increased risk of cancer."
We stock single chlorine filters, dual and triple housing kdf fluoride filters, chlorine whole house, shower filters and refrigerator filters to remove a variety of contaminants including fluoride, chlorine, bacteria, arsenic, heavy metals (lead, mercury, cadmium), iron, hydrogen sulfide, TTHMs, MTBEs, Haloacetic Acids--HAA5, VOCs, chloramines, sodium, nitrate, microorganisms and scale. We specalize in municipal filtration using KDF® media (made of copper and zinc) granulated activated carbon (GAC) built in the USA. GAC will remove organic materials VOCs and radon gas by a process called adsorption. Our Doulton ceramic sterasyl cartridges remove bacteria, sediment and cyst. KDF removes metals, pesticides, Trihalomethanes THMs, MTBE, and neutralizes chlorine. KDF combined with coconut shell carbon (GAC or carbon block) extends the life by protecting against bacteria growth. Most systems use carbon to remove chlorine, but need replacing every 3 to 6 months--bacteria will grow in carbon. But, the copper zinc in KDF produces zinc oxide which inhibits bacteria growth extends the life to 3 years. See NSF-53 test data.
