KDF-55 (KDF55-1) Process Media Specialized for Chlorine and Heavy Metal Removal 1 lb bag
KDF-55 Process Media for Chlorine and Heavy Metal Removal
High-purity copper-zinc granules engineered for redox filtration in municipal water treatment. 1 lb bag delivers up to 15,000 gallons of chlorine reduction capacity.
Redox Chemistry Without Chemicals
Oxidation-Reduction Reaction
High-purity copper-zinc granules exchange electrons with contaminants, converting free chlorine and precipitating heavy metals through proven redox chemistry.
Heavy Metal Reduction
Removes lead, mercury, and other dissolved metals through direct contact with KDF-55 media, creating insoluble hydroxides that can be filtered out.
Microorganism Control
The electrolytic field created by copper-zinc interaction inhibits bacterial growth and algae formation without introducing chemicals into your water.
Point-of-Entry Efficiency
Compact footprint and modest tank requirements make KDF 55 ideal for whole-house systems. One pound treats approximately 15,000 gallons for chlorine removal.
Point-of-Entry Treatment Applications
KDF-55 media works in whole-house filtration systems, upflow or downflow tanks, and as a pre-treatment stage ahead of carbon beds or softeners. Compatible with most municipal water supplies. Often paired with catalytic carbon for chloramine reduction or used upstream of ion exchange resin to extend bed life. Effective in water with pH 6.5-8.5 and temperatures up to 130°F.
Replacement Schedule
Standard Residential Use
Replace KDF-55 media in typical whole-house systems treating municipal water. Actual lifespan depends on water quality and volume processed.
High-Chlorine Environments
More frequent replacement needed in areas with chlorine levels above 2 ppm or if treating water for commercial applications with high flow rates.
Backwash Maintenance
Backwash KDF-55 beds every 2-4 weeks to remove accumulated particulates and redistribute granules for optimal contact time and performance.
Environmentally Responsible
No chemical additives required. Media is recyclable and creates no harmful byproducts during filtration.
Versatile Integration
Use alone or blend with GAC, catalytic carbon, or other media for multi-contaminant treatment strategies.
Proven Performance
Watts KDF-55 meets NSF/ANSI Standard 61 for drinking water system components and delivers consistent redox capacity.
