Iron and manganese removal

The orange stains on your tiles come from dissolved iron in borehole water. An oxidising filter turns it into particles and holds them back, so stains stop at the source.

How it works

Four steps inside the system

  1. Air or a dosing pump oxidises dissolved iron
  2. A media bed traps the iron particles
  3. The bed backwashes itself at night
  4. A carbon stage polishes the taste

Questions

Common questions

Do I need a test first?

Yes. We size every system from a recent test, so you only pay for what your water needs.

What maintenance does it need?

A check every quarter and cartridge changes on schedule. Our service plans cover both.

Will it work on solar power?

Yes. Pumps and controllers are chosen to run on a small solar and inverter setup.
