Exclusive IDF™ 3-Stage Technology Makes Better Water
The IDF™ process combines ion exchange (softening), distillation (boiling and condensation) and carbon filtration to produce safe drinking water. No single-step technology is as effective as the IDF™ process.

1) Ion Exchange (softening)

  • Reduces hardness minerals and prevents scale
  • Allows unit to work more efficiently and last longer

2) Distillation

  • Boils to kill bacteria
  • Steam is chilled by fan
  • Condenses into fresh water
  • Substances that cannot evaporate are left behind in boiling chamber and are drained away

3) Filtration (carbon)

  • Reduces any remaining Volatile Organic Chemicals (VOCs)
  • Carbon filter polishes the taste

More Effective than filters or Reverse Osmosis
Different technologies vary in their effectiveness in reducing contaminants. Filtering systems reduce some contaminants, but only some filters trap cysts. They also become less effective over time as the trapped contaminants build-up in the filtering medium. Reverse osmosis systems lose their effective ness as membranes become dirty or torn. Driven by water pressure, reverse osmosis systems use 3 to 10 gallons of water just to produce one gallon of drinking water. Whatever water system you choose, always be sure it is maintained properly so it performs at its best.
