Product Overview
KDF-55 process medium is an effective chlorine removal, heavy metal removal , and a bacteriostatic agent used in point of entry treatment of municipal water supplies. This unique, innovative and environmentally responsible medium consists of high purity copper-zinc granules that use redox (the exchange of electrons) in patented products to effectively reduce/remove chlorine and heavy metals and control microorganisms in potable water.
 
The most critical aspect of pressure filter performance is the relationship of flow rate to surface of KDF-55 process medium. Inaccurate sizing is the most common reason for the trouble in filter systems. The nominal flow rate in the service cycle depends on surface area available. Service flow rates with KDF-55 process medium, however, may be calculated at 15 gpm per square foot of surface area. This is three times the effective flow rate of other filter media.
 
Recommended Operating Conditions:
- Service Flow: 15 gpm/sq. ft.
- Backwash for 10 min. @: 30 gpm/sq. ft.
- Purge/rinse for 3 min@: Maximum

One problem I have with

"One problem I have with the order I made. I received the material, but no instructions as to what to do with it. I order a lot of different stuff, so I need the instructions to "remind me" of the purpose. So, I have this one pound bag on the floor in my office and I don't remember what it was for. Please send some instructions - and if you wish repeat business, send a link to your products. Thank you! mike wallace"

Happy With My Purchase~!

"US Water systems provides quality water filtration material. I used KDF to custom create my own filter. I spent less than a filter with housing would cost and I got to use double the filtration material thanks to US water systems. Grateful that they exist!"

Added a small amount to

"Added a small amount to a 50/50 mix of granular activated carbon and granular catalytic carbon media for a whole-house filtration system. Was able to distribute the KDF55 evenly by hand into the carbon media mixture."

Q&A

I have 4 lbs of KDF-55 with my carbon media. I’m unsure how I’m supposed to incorporate this media with the rest of my carbon media. I don’t see anything in my instructions. Thank you
Use the Blue Funnel provided to pour the media into the tank. The order the media is poured in is important. Begin by pouring the media labeled as Quartz Gravel into the bottom of the tank. Pour it evenly around the hole to ensure it is well distributed in the tank and pour slow enough to keep from plugging the hole. Then proceed to pour the media labeled KDF, followed by the granular activated carbon media and finally the catalytic carbon media .
