Not All Water Filters Are Created Equal
There are a host of water filter technologies out there. Here's a sampling:
Granular Activated Carbon (GAC)/Carbon Block
- Removes chlorine, taste and ordor, and chemicals
- Does not remove heavy metals (carbon block can remove undissolved lead)
- Limited life because of chlorine
- Carbon block filters can clog with sediment long before filter is exhausted
Reverse Osmosis
- Removes chlorine, taste and order, and chemicals (with carbon prefilter or postfilter)
- Removes heavy metals, such as lead
- Wastes water, 4 -5 gal. go down the drain to treat 1 gal.
- Removes healthful minerals, such as calcium and magnesium
- Expensive to maintain
Distillation
- Removes chlorine, taste and odor and chemicals (with carbon post filter)
- Removes heavy metals, such as lead
- Wastes energy - uses 25¢ of electricity to treat 1 gallon
- Removes healthful minerals, such as calcium and magnesium
- Removal of these minerals leaves a flat tasting water
KDF/GAC Filter- how it works?
- Water on Demand - no water or energy waste
- Removes a WIDE range of contaminants and heavy metals
- Leaves healthful minerals intact, leaving tastier mineral water
- Low maintenance; low operating cost
- KDF media inhibit bacteria growth throughout the unit
- 5 to 10 times longer life than GAC only filter
The KDF/GAC filtration technology has been recommended over competing
products by Andrew Weil, MD, a noted commentator on healthy living, who has
appeared on nationally televised network morning shows and syndicated talk
shows.
The marketplace is filled with good water filtration/purification systems and technologies.
So…why consider using KDF Process Media? We can give you two good reasons. One: Because KDF Process Media enhance the performance, extend the life, reduce the maintenance and lower the total cost of many available carbon-based systems. Two: KDF Process Media help control microorganisms by creating an environment that’s deadly to some microorganisms and that interferes with the ability of many other microorganisms to function. Either way, the use of KDF Process Media results in the total elimination of some contaminants and a great reduction of a wide assortment of others. The net result to you is low cost and high performance. That’s why all WaterCoolerBoy water filters utilize KDF/GAC based technology – and, they are made in the USA. (Click here for more details.)
