The chlorine free, contaminant free HANDHELD SHOWER FILTER WITH IN-LINE CHLORINE REMOVAL SYSTEM IS A FIRST OF IT'S KIND. It attaches easily to your shower to eliminate harmful chlorine, heavy metals as well as mercury, bacteria, algae and fungi from your shower water. Recent studies have shown that chlorine absorption through the skin and vapor inhalation can be harmful. The DELUXE HANDHELD SHOWER FILTER WITH IN-LINE CHLORINE REMOVAL SYSTEM is filled with KDF (copper and zinc alloy) a media proven to effectively eliminate chlorine, leaving your shower fresh, clean and safe. Lasts for years. Fully guaranteed. One of Dr. Guberman's favorites. Your hair, skin and health will thank you for it. Easy to maintain. After six to nine months just insert a new filter cartridge into the cable that houses the filter and your ready to go.
Don't spend all that money on expensive shampoo's only to wash then off with tap water.
Founded in 1984, KDF® is a technological leader in the fluid treatment industry. Beginning with a U.S. patent for KDF® redox alloy media in 1987, the company continues its technological innovation.
KDF® process media are high-purity copper-zinc formulations used in pretreatment, primary treatment, and wastewater applications. KDF® media supplement or replace existing technologies to dramatically extend system life, reduce heavy metals, microorganisms, scale, lower total cost, and decrease maintenance.
Patented KDF® process media are 100 percent recyclable and contain no chemical additives. Hospitals, restaurants, municipal water treatment facilities, and homes rely on KDF® process media to safely reduce or remove chlorine, iron, hydrogen sulfide, heavy metals, and bacteria from their water.
KDF Process Media Leads in Chlorine Removal
High-purity copper-zinc redox media consistently remove 99% of free chlorine by electrochemically reducing dissolved chlorine gas to water-soluble chloride ions.
- National clinical laboratory used KDF 55 media as a pretreatment to reverse osmosis membranes for high-purity. System has been in operation for 9 years at 6,000 gallons per day.
- KDF process media are being used to complement or replace activated carbon filters, removing the chlorine in municipal water. KDF media pretreatment of granular activated carbon also extends the carbon's life and limits bacteria growth in the bed.
A typical chlorine redox reaction with KDF process media:
Zinc loses 2 electrons (Oxidation) Chlorine gains 2 electrons (Reduction)
KDF Process Media Removes Iron
Redox media alloys function as catalysts to change soluble ferrous cations (positively-charged ions) into insoluble ferric hydroxide, which can be removed with regular backwashing. With enough oxygen dissolved in the water, iron removal rates of 98 percent or better are common. (More information on how KDF process media work.)
- Major municipal organization uses KDF 85 granules to effectively remove iron from the ground water at 350 gpm (gallons per minute).
Examples of iron redox reactions with KDF process media.
KDF Process Media Removes Hydrogen Sulfide
Typical redox reactions with KDF process media:
Copper loses 1 electron (oxidation). Sulfur gains 1 electron (reduction). Copper sulfide is insoluble in water and can be backwashed off KDF 85 media. (More information on how KDF process media work.) Go Back
• KDF 55 and 85 Metal Applications
Redox media remove up to 98% of water-soluble cations (positively-charged ions) of lead, mercury, copper, nickel, chromium, and other dissolved metals. (More information on how KDF process media work.)
When filtered through KDF media, soluble lead cations are reduced to insoluble lead atoms, which are electroplated onto the surface of the media. Other heavy metals bond to the media and may be recovered when the exhausted media pass through a copper smelter.

To the Industry:
RE: UNITED STATES E.P.A. RULES KDF® MEDIA, A "DEVICE"
This landmark decision confirms the patented KDF® media's ability to control bacteria, fungus algae and through the natural process of "electrochemical oxidation/reduction".
The E.P.A.'s KDF® device ruling will have a resounding global impact on the fluid treatment industry. With the recognition of KDF® media's antimicrobial properties, the KDF® media and KDF® / granulated activated carbon (GAC) combination can be promoted and advertised to its full potential.
The KDF® media's established benefits, witch serve to extend and enhance the ability of GAC to reduce organics, as well as the KDF® media's recyclability, usher in a new standard for fluid treatment media. These benefits include: reduction of heavy metals including lead, mercury, etc; reduction of hydrogen sulfide and iron; plus unparalleled Chlorine reduction.
KDF Fluid Treatment, Inc. Would like to take this opportunity to express our deepest appreciation to Primo L. Acernese and staff (Global Environmental Technologies), project technical consultant; and Dr. John Wireman (Biological Research Solutions), scientist and researcher; for their professional and unwavering work on the E.P.A./ KDF® project.
This determination, together with the recent NSF International Official Listing for Health Effects, will enable KDF Fluid Treatment, Inc. and its associates to pursue and unlock the full potential of the KDF® discovery, its ramifications for the fluid treatment industry and its ultimate contribution to science.
