We are on a well and live in an area that has iron in the groundwater. 10 years ago we had a KDF 85 media insert installed in our Autotroll 255 water softener. This completely removed any H2S smell from the water, but we did still have some minor iron staining over time and problems with whites in the laundry. Overall, however we were very happy with our KDF 85 solution.
Recently the water has developed an H2S smell that we want to get rid of. We assume the KDF is no longer working as it was.
Our water professional has changed to the Iron Breaker III for new installations, but will still replace our KDF 85 media if we prefer. The cost delta between the two solutions isn't an issue for us. Our water guy says that the Iron Breaker works in situations where KDF didn't always do the job. Iron breaker is more equipment to break down and more expense, but will it really do a better job than the KDF?
