There are many different methods of filtrating iron that we use to purify water on peoples homes, it all depends on the media we use inside the tank, and by manipulating the mechanics of the head to get our results. The system installation is very simple and similar to the installation of a water softener, what we use all depends on the type of issues that you are having with your water, and what all you want solved. Schedule your consultation to learn more about our variety of whole home water filtration systems.
Single Tank Aeriation Systems
This is the tank that we most commonly install into homes. It is used by using air to oxidize the manganese, iron, and hydrogen sulfide into small particles so they can be filtrated out. This system used to use two different tanks but now technology allowed us to simplify it down to one singular tank doing two jobs at once.
Manganese Greens and Mixture
Iron, manganese, and sulfur are all oxidized into solids so they can be trapped in the filter bed to later be filtered out and cleaned. The media used during this method is sort of a mimic of the actual environment, we use sand and gravel to filtrate the iron and residual particles in your water and will replace the media inside after time.
Carbon Filters
We use carbon because is an excellent absorbent or the chlorine that may lay in your water and permeate a chlorine odor in your water. Activated carbon will absorb all of the contaminates to remove the chlorine odor and then during the back wash cycle is will flush them down the drains!
Calcite Media
We use this because it does a really good job at bringing the ph levels in water up to a containable level where we can allow our systems to filtrate your home water. Calcite is one of more common methods, Calcite is simply just extremely pure limestone that dissolves easily unlike some other media compounds that are used.
Answering All Your Water Softener Questions
UV Filtration
Ultraviolet (UV) light filtration is a safe and effective method for disinfecting your drinking water that works by exposing living organisms like bacteria or viruses to a germicidal UV wavelength which kills the bacteria or viruses.
Reverse Osmosis
Reverse osmosis works using a small retaining tank installed in the basement, where the pure water will be held for use. It is made up of a sediment filter and also features a single manifold with four filter technologies and carbon filters for a better taste and smell.
Standard Filters
For standard filters, they can be cartridge devices or loose media tank-style designs. Sediment filters are also a type of standard filter and are used to remove any grit or particulates from the water. The water passes through these standard filters to remove unpleasant odors, colors, tastes, and iron.
Water Softeners
Water softeners are used to resolve the issue of hard water, where you have a high level of minerals like magnesium and calcium in your water. Water softeners filter water through a mineral tank that contains a resonated media to filter out iron, magnesium, and calcium.
Resonated media is made up of resin or plastic beads that have a negative electrical charge so they can attract the positive charge of the hard particles in the water. These are available in ion exchange where the sodium ions are substituted for the hard minerals or a dual-tank water softener that uses two resin tanks.
Well water is common in rural areas where landowners obtain their water from wells on their land. In other cases, some towns and water supply companies may get their water supply from deep wells. Well water typically has a higher mineral content, with higher levels of calcium and magnesium when compared to groundwater. Well water tends to be hard, requiring a water softener for a more desirable experience.
Tap water is obtained from a town water supply. This type of water is thoroughly treated and safe to drink but can also benefit from various water treatments.
We recommend that you have your water tested on a yearly basis to ensure it is safe. At Aqua Solutions, we will thoroughly test your water for:
Lead enters the water through corrosion, which occurs when metal is worn away or dissolved due to a chemical reaction between your plumbing and the water. Lead is toxic - which is why you want to make sure your water is cleansed from lead build up.
The Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) sets the maximum allowable lead content in water or what content is considered lead-free, at a weighted average of .25. This percentage includes all wetted surfaces of pipe fittings, pipes, fixtures, and plumbing fittings. This also includes 0.2 percent for the solder and flux. The maximum contaminant level is set at zero. This is the level at which no adverse health effects will occur.
What Dangers Does Lead Pose?
Lead is toxic to humans and can bioaccumulate in the body over time. This puts younger children, infants, and fetuses at a higher risk of health problems caused by lead exposure such as:
Adults can experience cardiovascular issues, reproductive issues, decreased kidney function, high blood pressure, and hypertension caused by lead poisoning. Pregnant women may experience reduced growth of the fetus or premature birth.
Hard water is when there are high levels of calcium and magnesium dissolved in your water. It can reduce the effectiveness of soap, cause dry skin, and cause buildup and damage to appliances.
Soft water has never been exposed to calcium or magnesium, or these elements have been removed through a water softening process where the magnesium and calcium are replaced with sodium chloride.
