Sulfur Water
Sulfur in well water is a common problem.
The 800 Hague Iron Filter is the natural way to improve your water and remove sulfur!
- Clearer water from the tap
- No more rotten egg smell from hydrogen sulfide
- Cleaner, whiter clothes
- No more staining on fixtures
- Elimination of iron build-up in water using appliances
How It Works
The 800 Iron Filter stores a “bubble” of air, compressed by your well pressure, within the media tank. As your water passes through the air, the sulfur is converted to a particle, which is then trapped by the catalytic filter media in the tank while the air “bubble” is gradually consumed by the passing water.
For regeneration, the unit first “backwashes” itself removing any sulfur particles it has trapped. Next, the system replenishes the “air bubble” by drawing in atmosphere temporarily emptying the tank of all water and transferring oxygen molecules into and on the surface of the media bed where all oxidation occurs. Finally, the system then returns to the “service” position, again filtering your water.
What is Sulfur? What are the effects of contaminated water?
Sulfur (Hydrogen Sulfide H2S)
Sulfur is a colorless gas which causes the unpleasant “rotten egg” odor, which is a common tainted water complaint. High levels of sulfur can lead to serious plumbing damage.
