How it works

1

Water test

We test for iron type, manganese, and hydrogen sulfide levels. The type and concentration determine the right approach.

2

Custom system design

We size the system to your water's iron/sulfur load and your household's flow rate requirements.

3

Professional install

A licensed plumber installs the oxidizing filter system at your main water line. Most installs are completed in one visit.

Common questions

What causes orange staining in my water?

Orange or rust-colored staining is caused by dissolved ferrous iron oxidizing when it hits air — turning into insoluble ferric iron (rust). It stains anything the water touches.

Does a water softener fix iron problems?

A standard water softener can remove small amounts of dissolved iron (under 1–2 mg/L), but it's not designed for iron removal. For higher iron levels, a dedicated iron removal system is the right tool.

Will this fix my laundry staining too?

Yes. Once iron is removed at the main line, the staining stops throughout the entire home — including laundry.
