KDF Filtration Media - The Miracle Media for Well Water Treatment


Safe, Clean Water from Your Well—Without Chemicals

If you rely on well water, you're probably familiar with the challenges: unpleasant odors, staining from iron, and concerns about bacteria or heavy metals. KDF filtration media offers a powerful, chemical-free way to solve these problems at the source.


What Is KDF Filtration?

KDF (Kinetic Degradation Fluxion) is a high-purity copper-zinc filtration media that removes contaminants from water through a natural process called redox (oxidation-reduction). As water flows through the media, electrons are transferred between elements, changing harmful substances into harmless ones—or filtering them out entirely.

KDF is most commonly used as a pre-filter in well water systems, where it does some heavy lifting before the water reaches carbon filters, softeners, or reverse osmosis membranes.


How KDF Filtration Media Improves Well Water?


Kills Bacteria

KDF media creates an environment that’s hostile to microbial growth. It disrupts bacteria, algae, and fungi without needing chemicals or UV light. This helps keep your filtration system clean and reduces the risk of contaminated water.

Neutralizes Hydrogen Sulfide (Rotten Egg Smell)

If your water smells like sulfur, KDF-85 can help. It oxidizes hydrogen sulfide gas into solid sulfur, which is easily removed by filtration—leaving your water odor-free and fresh-tasting.

Removes Iron

KDF oxidizes dissolved iron (Fe²⁺) into a solid form (Fe³⁺) that can be filtered out. No more rust-colored stains on sinks, tubs, or laundry.

Reduces Heavy Metals

KDF targets dangerous metals like lead, mercury, arsenic, and cadmium. Through redox reactions and electrochemical bonding, these metals are neutralized or captured before they reach your tap.


Why Choose KDF for Your Well Water?

  • Chemical-Free: No chlorine, ozone, or peroxide required

  • Long-Lasting Media: With proper maintenance, KDF can last for years

  • Stops Bacteria at the Filter: Prevents biofilm and slime buildup

  • Boosts Performance: Protects and extends the life of carbon filters and softeners

  • Environmentally Friendly: Non-toxic and recyclable media


Where Is KDF Used?

KDF media is versatile and commonly used in:

  • Whole-house well water filtration systems

  • Water Softening Systems

  • Point-of-entry (POE) filters

  • Pre-treatment for reverse osmosis

  • Inline and shower filters


Let’s Fix Your Water—Naturally

If you're tired of bad smells, stained fixtures, or concerns about what's in your water, KDF filtration might be the perfect solution. Whether you're upgrading your current system or installing new equipment, we can help you design a filtration setup that fits your needs—and your water.


I wish you Good Days, and Good Water!
