Orange and rust-colored staining on tubs, sinks, toilets, and laundry is iron. It is common on private wells around the Treasure Valley, and no amount of scrubbing fixes it, because the source is the water itself.
An iron filtration system removes iron before it reaches your fixtures, so the staining stops.
What an iron filter protects
- Tubs, sinks, toilets, and tile from rust staining
- White laundry, towels, and linens from turning orange
- Plumbing and appliances from iron buildup
- Your water softener, which iron can foul and shorten the life of
- Taste, since iron gives water a distinct metallic edge
How it works
- No chemicals added. Iron is filtered out mechanically, not treated with additives.
- Regenerates on demand. The system cleans itself based on actual water usage instead of a fixed schedule.
- Backwash design keeps the filter bed clean and performing.
- Sized to your iron level, which is why the water test comes first.
Iron and sulfur often show up together
If you also have a rotten-egg smell, that is usually hydrogen sulfide, and it frequently occurs in the same wells as iron. We can address both in one system design rather than two separate projects.
