Liquagen 4.5" X 10" Birm + Kdf-85 Filter

The LiquaGen 4.5” x 10” Birm + KDF-85 Filter Cartridge is a Big Blue refillable cartridge designed to reduce iron, manganese, and hydrogen sulfide (rotten egg odor) in residential and light commercial water systems.

By combining Birm media for iron and manganese reduction with KDF-85 granules for sulfur, scale, and bacteria control, this dual-media cartridge provides powerful contaminant protection. It helps keep your plumbing, fixtures, and appliances free from staining, foul odors, and metallic taste.

Built for Big Blue 4.5” x 10” housings, this cartridge is ideal for homes experiencing low to moderate iron or H₂S levels (≤5 ppm) while requiring higher flow and capacity than slimline filters can provide.

💧 Rotten Egg Odor Control – Removes hydrogen sulfide smells for fresher, odor-free water.

🌱 Dual Media Protection – Birm boosts iron/manganese removal; KDF-85 targets sulfur, scale & bacteria.
