The Iron Max system has several uses. It is primarily used for well water residential applications where superior water is desired for both taste and functional use. It is also used for commercial applications where iron prevention is required, applications such as; whole house, business, irrigation, pre-treatment, Reverse Osmosis pre-treatment, ect. What is special about the Iron Max? The Iron Max is unique in the following ways: 1. Only one piece of equipment is needed for multiple water problems. This actually can create an overall cost savings. 2. Iron, Manganese & Hydrogen Sulfide (rotten egg smell) problems that often require the use of chemicals such as potassium permanganate or chlorine, are eliminated which means no chemicals to handle, store, or purchase. 3. The existence of local bans on salt based water equipment is not an issue with this system. No objectionable chlorides are dispensed into the drain system. The drain water from the Iron Max is safe for your septic, plants, etc.. What is so important about not using chemicals or sodium in treating the water? 1. You are not spending money on them. 2. You are not drinking or ingesting them in part or in whole. 3. You are not adding to the pollution of the water supplies. Is there any routine maintenance involved with the Iron Max No, The Iron Max is considered a maintenance free whole house water filter. There are no routine filters to replace and requires no chemicals. The Iron Max will filter and clarify your water by filtering iron, manganese, hydrogen sulfide gas, and suspended solids in the water. It will also improve the taste & odor of your water. The filtration media will need to be exchanged approximately every 8 to 10 years*. This is easily accomplished with the use of a wet & dry vacuum which you use to vacuum out the old filtration media from the top of the filter. You then replace it with a new bed of filtration media which will last approximately another 8 to 10 years*. This is the only maintenance that the system will require. * Some applications may require a more frequent replacement interval. The Iron Max will not treat iron bacteria or sulfur reducing bacteria. If these bacteria's are present you will need to chlorinate your well to prevent any iron bacteria or sulfur reducing bacteria from passing through the Iron Max well water filter. Your instructions will include easy to follow well chlorination instructions and detailed information on iron bacteria. If the Iron Max does not use chemicals or sodium, what does it use? Just water is needed for backwashing! The Iron Max creates filtered water at every tap - it does not add anything to your water. The Iron Max System will oxidize and absorb iron, manganese, and hydrogen sulfide gas from your water and trap it within the filter. Approximately every 7-10 days*, the automatic control valve will initiate a backwash cycle for approximately 20 minutes and rinse the trapped particles down a drain or elsewhere. The system will then automatcially re-set itself to backwash for another 7-10 days*. * Some applications may require a more frequent backwash interval. How much water does it use? Not much. It will use approximately 50 gallons once per week to automatically backwash itself. Larger Iron Max systems will use more water for backwashing. This backwashing process lifts away all the suspended particles that have been captured in the filter bed and washes them down the drain. These suspended particles naturally occur in water so you are not introducing an objectionable foreign substance back into the water supply. How much iron, manganese, and hydrogen sulfide gas will the Iron Max filter? The Iron Max will filter high levels of Ferrous and Ferric Iron up to 10ppm (mg/L), Manganese up to 8ppm (mg/L) Hyrogen Sulfide Gas up to 10ppm (mg/L) as well as unpleasant tastes and odors. The Iron Max will not treat iron bacteria or sulfur reducing bacteria. If these bacteria's are present you will need to chlorinate your well to prevent any iron bacteria or sulfur reducing bacteria from passing through the Iron Max well water filter. Your instructions will include easy to follow well chlorination instructions and detailed information on iron bacteria. How Do I Order The Iron Max?
