How it works!
Entek® Iron & Sulfur systems utilize oxygen, contained in your water, to oxidize Iron, Hydrogen Sulfide and Manganese, so they drop out of solution to form particles. Periodically, the filter initiates a backwash cycle so the oxidized particles are flushed from the system. Our control valve is also designed to create an air pocket in the filter tank for additional oxidation for improved performance.
Entek® Iron & Sulfur systems do not need chemicals for oxidation. However, if your water contains bacteria, water treatment chemicals may be required for disinfection.
