IRON / SULFUR FILTERS
TASTE & ODOR (CARBON) MULT-MEDIA (SEDIMENT)
& NEUTRALIZING FILTER
 |
Taste and Odor Filter
(Carbon)
Unpleasant tastes and odors caused by chlorine or
organic substances, such as decayed vegetation and
run-off, are absorbed
by top quality activated carbon. The filter will
automatically backwash to a pre-determined schedule.
This frees the bed of
accumulated impurities and readies it for operation
again.Multi-Media Filter (Sediment)
Suspended particulate matter, such as clay and silt,
which gives water a cloudy appearance is trapped in the
filter bed to
produce clean, clear water. A variety of gravel and sand
facilitates more thorough backwashing and prevents
channeling,
Periodic backwashing cleans the bed.
Neutralizing Filter
This neutralizing filter contains special media which
raises the pH of acidic water and neutralizes its
corrosive characteristics.
In addition to protecting pipes, plumbing fixtures and
appliances, this filter also facilitates the removal of
iron and manganese
by raising the pH. This enables an iron filter to be
used. Periodic backwashing cleans the bed. Additional
media may be
required six months to two years after installation,
depending on the water’s pH.

CHEMICAL FREE IRON FILTER (A AND AM BEDS)
 |
The chem-free iron filter
features two major components, an air injector and a
backwashable filter containing special media. In some
applications a contact
tank or an additional pressure tank may be required for
the chem-free to
function.
The air injector adds a controlled amount of air to the
water supply just before it
enters the pressure tank. The air starts the iron
removal process as the water
sits in the tank.
The water’s pH is automatically raised to neutral or
higher as it passes through
the filter bed and a catalytic effect occurs between the
iron and filter media.
The iron actually changes into a colloidal state and as
such it is trapped
throughout the filter bed. This produces an iron removal
capacity four times
greater than a conventional iron removal filter.
The chem-free filter media remains unchanged at the end
of the oxidation
process and consequently requires no chemical
regeneration.
Periodic backwashing of the filter bed flushes the
precipitated iron to the drain
and readies the filter for use again. The duration and
frequency of backwashing
varies from 10 to 12 minutes every 4 to 12 days,
depending on iron
concentration and water usage.Once installed, the
chemical free iron filter requires little
or no attention. It automatically removes soluble iron,
sometimes called ferrous iron or “clear water”,
precipitated iron, sometimes called ferric iron or “red
water” and bacterial iron. It is safe and very
economical
because it requires none of the expensive or messy
chemicals conventional iron filters use.
Neutralizes acidic water
The chemical free iron removal filter’s patented process
raises the pH of the water, improving the efficiency of
iron removal. This has the added benefit of neutralizing
acidic water.
