The Life Ionizers KDF-85 filter is designed specifically to remove tastes and odor from your water, as well as chlorine, organics, iron and hydrogen sulfide. This filter sits discretely inside of filter housing either on top of or underneath your counter. This cartridge utilizes dark granular KDF (Kinetic Degradation Fluxion), and the black granular coconut shell activated carbon reduces organics and chlorine as well. This is the ideal filter for removing any tastes or odors your water may have, and is especially effective for well water sources.
