WECO - Model CCMG-1252 -Backwashing Carbon Filter for Taste and Odor Improvement

The WECO Backwashing filter with catalytic granular activated carbon (GAC) plus a KDF-85 Media Guard is a high-performance Point-Of-Entry (POE) filter designed to remove rotten egg odors caused by hydrogen sulfide from water supplies. Ferrous iron along with potentially harmful metals such as zinc, cadmium and copper are oxidized and rendered non-reactive by catalytic reactions. Incoming water first passes through the Media Guard with KDF-85. Media Guard is an insert device loaded with KDF-85. The KDF-85 catalytic media consists of high purity copper-zinc granules that use redox (the exchange of electrons) remove hydrogen sulfide, heavy metals, chlorine and control microorganisms in potable water without the use of chemicals. Residual chlorine disinfectants then react with the tank of GAC, converting chlorine to harmless chloride.
