10" x 2.5" KDF-85 Specialty Filter
High-performance redox filtration for iron and hydrogen sulfide removal in residential and light commercial applications
Redox Filtration for Heavy-Duty Water Challenges
KDF-85 Redox Process
Oxidation-reduction media specifically formulated to remove hydrogen sulfide and reduce dissolved iron through electrochemical reactions
Coconut Shell GAC
ResinTech granular activated carbon provides molecular-level adsorption of contaminants while the KDF-85 extends carbon life
Bacteriostatic Protection
KDF-85 media inhibits bacterial growth within the filter cartridge, maintaining filtration efficiency over the service life
Standard 10" x 2.5" Size
Fits most residential and light commercial housings designed for 10-inch cartridges with 2.5-inch outer diameter
Application Range
The Aries AF-10-2085 fits standard 10-inch filter housings with 2.5" diameter compatibility. Ideal for whole-house systems, reverse osmosis pre-filtration, and point-of-use applications where iron and hydrogen sulfide are present. Works in both municipal and well water treatment scenarios. Compatible with most brands including Pentek, Culligan, Aqua-Pure, and GE housings rated for 10" x 2.5" cartridges.
Replacement Schedule
Municipal Water
Replace every 6 months for city water with moderate iron or hydrogen sulfide levels
Well Water
Replace every 3-4 months when treating well water with higher concentrations of iron or sulfur compounds
Performance-Based
Monitor for reduced flow rate, metallic taste, or sulfur odor as indicators that the KDF-85 media is exhausted
Direct Replacement
Standard 10" x 2.5" dimensions fit existing housings without modification
Cost-Effective Treatment
KDF-85 redox filtration provides an economical alternative to chemical iron and sulfur treatment
Whole-House Capable
Suitable for RO pre-filtration and whole-house applications when used in appropriate housing
Dual Media Design
Combines GAC adsorption with KDF-85 redox chemistry for comprehensive filtration
