The filter media creates a catalysis reaction that changes soluble ferrous iron (clear water iron) and hydrogen sulfide (rotten egg smell) into ferric oxide and ferric hydroxide, which are insoluble. This is the same reaction that takes place when iron-bearing water is exposed to air, which leads to staining of fixtures.
The Eco-IM creates a pocket of air in the top of the tank. The water passes through a diffuser to break up the water droplets and then passes through the air pocket where the iron and sulfur are oxidized. The filter bed media then removes the iron and sulfur, as well as manganese, while introducing additional oxygen to the water.
The Eco-IM requires….
The Iron Master will remove up to 8 ppm of hydrogen sulfide along with 7 ppm of iron, depending on the pH level of the source water.
