South Florida Water's Iron-Sulfur Eliminator Filter unlike many Iron removal systems that require the use of chemicals, the Iron-Sulfur Eliminator Filter is chemical free and nearly maintenance free! The Iron-Sulfur Eliminator Filter removes Iron (Ferrous & Ferric) and Hydrogen Sulfide (rotten egg odor) from your household water.
This is an air induced unit with no chemicals. Iron and hydrogen Sulfide are oxidized on the filtration media. Simple backwashing, initiated by the automatic control valve that cleans the media bed. As your water passes thru the air, the iron or sulfur is converted to a particle, which is then trapped by the catalytic filter media in the tank while the air is gradually consumed by the passing water.
For regeneration, the unit first "backwashes" itself, removing any iron or sulfur particles it has trapped. The system then replenishes the air by drawing in atmosphere, temporarily emptying the tank of all water and transferring oxygen molecules into and on the surface of the media bed where all oxidation occurs. The system then returns to the "service" position, again filtering your water.
