As water seeps through soil it will naturally dissolve minerals and metals it comes into contact with, one of which is iron, commonly distinguished by its orange or red-like color. Heavy iron deposits in water can lead to iron bacteria which in turn leave unpleasant tastes and odors resembling sewage, rotten eggs or rotten vegetation.
Underground iron deposits can vary depending on geographical locations. Surface water collecting these minerals travels into the groundwater, eventually making its way into a well’s water supply where notable rusty, slime, and staining will then make its way into fixtures, toilet tanks, tubs, clothes, and appliances.
Iron in water can cause visible staining even at low concentrations. As defined by American National Standards NSF/ANSI Standard 44 iron water containing 0.3 parts per million (ppm) of iron or 0.05 ppm of manganese will cause staining. Even if water coming out of the tap may appear clear, an accumulation of these metals will be visible over time.
Clean Stream Water’s high efficiency twin-tank salt water softeners have consistently proven to be our most effective treatment for removing iron in residential, commercial, and agricultural applications for over 30 years.
Twin-Tank Water Softener System
For Whole House Water Treatment
Iron found in water binds to a porous resin found in the water softening unit. It is within this resin where iron metals are exchanged with high purity iron removing salt crystals, delivering clean water to faucets while rejecting the hard minerals out the drain.
The result? Spot-free dishes and fixtures, no staining on shower floors, tubs, or toilet bowls.
Maintenance required filling the salt tank as needed.
Traditional no-salt conditioners may get rid of existing scale but will not actually reduce the mineral content in the water since they lack drain expulsion. These units are merely scale inhibitors. The water will feel hard because it still is hard. It might not build up in the pipes but hardness in the water will still be seen when water evaporates.
