Product Questions & Answers

Have a iron bacteria question that hasn't been answered? Live chat with a RainDance specialist for a quick answer!

Q: How is the Iron Max Plus different from a standard well water filter?
A: The RainDance Iron Max Plus is specifically engineered for well water applications and contains chlorine or hydrogen peroxide injection for the treatment of iron bacteria, sulfur reducing bacteria and tannins (yellow water) and specialty filter media engineered to trap iron, manganese, sediment, and hydrogen sulfide gas odors when water passes through. Standard water filters cannot handle iron bacteria, sulfur reducing bacteria, high iron, manganese, sediment, tannins and hydrogen sulfide gas odors. In fact, these contaminants will destroy most standard well water filters within months if not days!

Q: How long have you been selling the Iron Max Plus?
A: The Iron Max Plus has been our best selling well water iron bacteria filter for whole house, agriculture, livestock, farming commercial business, and irrigation water since 1999!

Q: Where can I buy the Iron Max Plus?
A: The Iron Max Plus is purchased directly from RainDance Water Systems - we do not sell our products on Amazon or EBay

Q: What is iron bacteria? Is it iron?
   A: Iron bacteria is a type of iron which is commonly seen as a slimy coating on pipes and appliances. There are several different types of iron that can be found in ground water wells including Ferrous (Clear Water Iron), Ferric (Red Water Iron), Iron Bacteria, and Colloidal Iron. Iron bacteria, as well as Sulfur Bacteria, are two of the most common bacterial contaminants that well owners face. Neither type of bacteria is particularly harmful, however they can be incredible nuisances.

Q: How does the Iron Max Plus remove iron bacteria?
A: Iron bacteria cannot be removed without some oxidation, so the Iron Max Plus uses chlorine or hydrogen peroxide to completely oxidize iron bacteria. After oxidation, the Iron Max filter removes the oxidized iron bacteria and other contaminants. A Post Carbon Filter is included to remove any residual chlorine or hydrogen peroxide from the water after oxidation.

Q: How much will it reduce iron and iron bacteria?
A: The Iron Max Plus can effectively filter up to 50ppm of iron including iron bacteria and reduce the levels to below the EPA Secondary maximum limit (0.3ppm). In most cases they are filtered down to trace or non-detectable levels.

Q: Will it eliminate rotten egg odors?
A: Yes! This system treats two common types of rotten egg odor - hydrogen sulfide gas and sulfur bacteria. Sulfur bacteria includes sulfur oxidizers (produces a dark slime that can clog plumbing) and sulfur reducers (breaks down sulfur compounds producing hydrogen sulfide gas).

Q: Do I have to use chlorine or hydrogen peroxide?
A: Yes, when extremely high iron levels or iron bacteria is present additional oxidation is required for long-term filter life. To assure the utmost water quality, all Iron Max Plus systems include an important post carbon filter to remove any residual hydrogen peroxide or chlorine & chlorination-by-products from the water so you never realize it was added.

Q: Do I need a separate contact tank?
A: In most cases the existing well pressure tank is efficient for providing contact time during treatment. In some cases with extremely high contaminants a separate contact tank is recommended for extended contact time. Find our separate retention contact tank option below!

Q: How long does the Iron Max filter last?
A: The entire system does not need to be replaced, just the filter media. This media is designed to last up to 8-10 years depending on water chemistry and usage. When the media is spent you can simply remove the old media and load new media into your system for continued years of service.

Q: Do I need a plumber to install?
A: If you are handy and have basic plumbing skills you should have no problem with this installation. The Iron Max only requires 3 simple connections - inlet, outlet, and drain line. An electrician may be needed to provide and install a dedicated power outlet for the feed pump. We provide detailed installation instructions, pictures, and offer several means of tech support for you or your installer if needed.

Q: How do I know my filter is working?
A: There are (3) test bibs and a water test kit included with the Iron Max Plus. These bibs are easily installed before and after the Iron Max Plus for on-site testing. We also offer lifetime testing for as long as you own the system.

Optional Upgrade: Eliminate routine maintenance and filter replacements by adding a RainDance automatic backwashing carbon filter to the Iron Max Plus system.
