Iron is one of the most common elements found in nature. Just about all water supplies contain some measurable content of iron but particularly in water wells. Well water can have an iron content as little as 0.1 ppm up to 50 ppm or more. Problems typically start occurring in waters that contain 0.3 ppm and greater.
We also provide specialty whole house iron removal systems designed to filter extremely high iron referred to as Fe. Our most recent whole house iron filter projects include: Virginia Feed Water Iron 22ppm, New York Feed Water Iron 15ppm, Pennsylvania Feed Water Iron 2.8ppm, California Feed Water Iron 1ppm, Montana Feed Water Iron 4.6ppm, New Mexico Feed Iron Water 4.1ppm, Oregon Feed Water Iron 3.6ppm, Florida Feed Water Iron 2.7ppm.

Iron can also be found in several different forms. Ferrous and Ferric iron are the most common. Ferrous iron is colorless in solution, but when it comes in contact with air, it oxidizes readily, creating red solid particles which are known as Ferric iron. With the iron in Ferric form, the task of removing it from the water is then easily achieved.
The process of converting Ferrous iron to Ferric iron is dependent upon several factors. The most important factor for effective iron removal is the pH level of the water. The pH level strongly dictates which approach to take regarding the removal of iron. Higher pH levels are more favorable for effectively oxidizing the iron. A pH level of 6.8 or higher is desirable. Low pH waters can also be effectively treated for iron removal, but the process becomes a little more involving.
To make it easy for you, we have created different packages to solve your iron and well water related water problems. Our well water filters below have been designed to effectively remove the iron, iron bacteria, manganese, sulfur, sulfur reducing bacteria, and correct acidic water (low pH).
We specialize in iron filters! If you are not sure which filter or systems are best for your home, please e-mail or fax your water chemistry report to 760-896-6999 and we will recommend one of our iron filters that will correct your problematic well water.
