The
Stage-1 filter in our Undercounter Twin Superior Water Filter combines
KDF, a compound of Copper and Zinc, and GAC (Granulated Activated Carbon)
and
works especially well on Chlorine taste and odors, while adding all the
reduction-oxidation benefits of the KDF compound. The Stage-2 water filter,
our WR001 (previously
the CTU-1) 1.0 micron solid carbon block water filter, is the work horse
for
particulate reduction, chlorine
taste and odor. Lasts for about
2500 gallons. Retail Price: $70.00. The WR004 cartridge set includes both
cartridges for our WU002 Undercounter Twin Superior water filtration system.

Stage
1: The water filter cartridge in the 1st stage of the WU002 twin systems
utilizes KDF filtration media, GAC (granular activated carbon) and 3 stages
of polypropylene
sediment filtration.
KDF
Process Media are high-purity, granulated copper and zinc-based alloys that
filter water through a process based upon the principle
of redox (Oxidation-Reduction).
Originally, KDF was shorthand for Kinetic Degradation Fluxion. We can explain
redox like this: KDF Fluid Treatment’s unique combination of copper and
zinc creates an electro-chemical reaction. During this reaction, electrons
are transferred between molecules, and new compounds are created.
The
GAC media helps to further reduce chlorine taste and odors.
Stage
2: The water filter cartridge in the 2nd stage of the WU002 is a high capacity
1 micron carbon block filter, our WR001.
