How it works

The WHWCC-47 process begins with a Micro Sediment Pre-Filter (model#FHBB-101) to remove any physical, undissolved particles out of the water (even though your water runs clear, you will be amazed by how much dirt & grime this filter captures). The only annual maintenance for this system is to replace the pre-sediment filter every 3-6 months, frequency of replacement depends on the amount of particulate in your well water. The Main Tank system utilizes our proprietary patented Reticulated KDF-55, Reticulated KDF-85 & high purity acid washed catalytic coconut shell carbon, all of which have been tested to NSF standard 42 and 61.

The KDF-55 Minerals remove the dissolved inorganic contaminants (heavy metals, etc.), in addition to creating a bacteriostatic environment. In addition, KDF-55 balances pH, prevents corrosion & scale formation. KDF-55 is a unique copper-zinc media that reshapes hardness ions so they cannot adhere to each other or to the inside of plumbing. Instead the calcium and magnesium ions remain soluble in the water, thus reducing scale while adding life to the water.

KDF-85 is a unique formulation of copper-zinc media that provides additional benefits to this well water filtration system. In particular, this media is great for targeting and eliminating hydrogen sulfide & iron bacteria, which are common well water ailments. 

The high purity acid washed coconut shell carbon remove the volatile organic compounds (chlorine, herbicides, pesticides, etc). This powerful wide spectrum filter will remove and/or reduce chlorine, heavy metals, herbicides, pesticides, many types of pharmaceuticals, sediment, algae, molds, scale, bad taste, odors, and other undesirable contaminants that may effect the quality of your water supply.

What is salt-free water softening?

Salt Free Water Softening & Scale prevention! Unlike traditional salt based water softeners, CuZn Salt Free Systems won’t make your water feel slimy, have hair flattening effects, strip beneficial minerals or add salt to your water. If you have 8 grains of hardness or more, consider one one of our High Hardness Systems. 

Our technologically advanced salt free Anti-Scale Medias are an innovative solution that prevents all of the negative effects of calcium and magnesium, while allowing the positive health benefits to remain by not removing the calcium and magnesium. Within a water system, calcium and magnesium can adhere to plumbing and water appliances by forming crystalline scale structures. Untreated, these minerals become hard, interfere with heat transfer and eventually cause loss of water flow and pressure. Untreated hardness can increase your home’s energy bill up to 20%!

KDF reshapes these hardness ions so they cannot adhere to each other or to the inside of plumbing. Instead the calcium and magnesium ions remain soluble in the water, thus preventing scale while adding life to the water.

*In some cases harsh detergents, high in chlorine/bleach or phosphates can cause mineral like deposits to form on dishes. To avoid this issue use Jet Dry or similar product, reduce the amount of harsh detergent used or best of all – Use an Eco Friendly brand
