It works by oxidising the iron so it comes out of solution, then filtering the solids out and backwashing them to drain automatically. Iron in water is invisible until it hits air, which is why the first sign is usually orange staining in the toilet cistern or on the washing rather than discoloured water at the tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGet a water test first.\u003c\/strong\u003e Every one of these systems treats a specific problem, and the wrong one will not fix your water no matter how much it costs.

People try one, it blocks in a week, they try a finer one and it blocks faster. Iron has to be oxidised before it can be filtered, and that is exactly what this does. Which model depends on your iron level and whether manganese or sulphur are in the mix, so send us the water test.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePump Stuff is the online side of TW Farm \u0026amp; Electrical.
