Why the State 48 Water Whole House Filter and Water Softener over a softener alone? A standard water softener removes hardness but does nothing for chlorine, disinfection byproducts (DBPs), VOCs, or heavy metals. In the East Valley, where DBPs and chemical residues are consistently detected in city water reports, adding a carbon and KDF stage before the resin bed makes a significant difference in the water your family drinks, bathes in, and cooks with. The State 48 Water Whole House Filter and Water Softener also protects the resin from chlorine degradation, which can extend its useful life considerably.
How the 4-stage system works
1
KDF Media
Kinetic Degradation Fluxion media uses a copper-zinc redox process to reduce chlorine, heavy metals including lead and mercury, and hydrogen sulfide. Critically, KDF creates a bacteriostatic environment that inhibits bacterial growth and extends the life of the carbon bed below it.
Removes: Chlorine, lead, mercury, bacteria inhibition
2
Activated Carbon
High-grade activated carbon removes chlorine, trihalomethanes (THMs), haloacetic acids (HAAs), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), pesticides, herbicides, radon, benzene, and hundreds of other chemicals commonly found in municipal water. This is what gives your water that noticeably cleaner taste and smell.
Removes: THMs, HAAs, VOCs, pesticides, chlorine byproducts
3
Performance Resin
Category One ion exchange resin engineered specifically for desert climates removes calcium and magnesium, converting hard water into soft water that protects your plumbing, appliances, skin, and hair. Protected by the KDF and carbon stages above it, this resin performs longer and regenerates more efficiently.
Removes: Hardness, calcium, magnesium, scale
4
Quartz Under-Bedding
A precision quartz bed at the base of the tank supports the media layers above, prevents channeling, and ensures even water distribution across the full cross-section of the tank. The result is consistent filtration and softening performance at every flow rate, with no dead zones.
Improves: Flow rate, contact time, media performance

Searching for a Green Fusion or Evolution whole house water softener and filter system?
If you've been researching whole house water softener and filter systems in the Phoenix area, you may have come across brand names like Green Fusion or Evolution. These systems are well-known in the Arizona market and use a similar media approach: KDF filtration, activated carbon, and ion exchange resin working together in a single tank.
The State 48 Water Whole House Filter and Water Softener uses that same proven media combination, built to the same commercial grade standards, installed by a licensed local contractor at a price that makes sense. We don't mark up the system to cover a franchise fee or a showroom. You're paying for the equipment and a professional install from someone who stands behind the work.
