Description
If your well water has arsenic, you’re likely seeing rusty or dark stains on fixtures and laundry. The WSP Whole House Arsenic Reduction System is designed to help reduce arsenic levels throughout your home, protecting your plumbing and appliances from buildup and discoloration.
The problem you’re facing
When your well water contains arsenic, you might notice orange or brown staining around faucets, toilets, or sinks. The water can have a strange metallic taste or a faint chemical odor. Over time, these signs point to arsenic settling out of the water and causing damage or discoloration in your pipes and appliances. It’s not just unsightly; it’s a persistent issue you can’t scrub away.
Why this happens
Arsenic naturally occurs in some groundwater sources, especially wells, in forms called Arsenic III and Arsenic V. These forms can dissolve in water quietly, without obvious taste or smell. The problem shows up when the arsenic binds with iron or other minerals, creating deposits that stain surfaces and build up inside your plumbing. A simple water test measuring arsenic levels confirms if this is the root cause.
What it costs you to leave it
Ignoring arsenic in your water means continuing to clean stubborn stains on toilets and sinks, and dealing with laundry that looks dull or discolored. Over time, scale and deposits can reduce your water heater’s efficiency and shorten its lifespan. Appliances that use water may also work harder and fail sooner. While these aren’t health claims, they are practical consequences affecting your home’s upkeep and costs.
How this system helps reduce arsenic
This system relies on iron-based arsenic-selective media inside a specialized tank that traps and binds arsenic particles. It works by drawing air into the tank to oxidize arsenic, converting it into a form that sticks to the media. Periodically, the system flushes these particles down a drain through a self-cleaning process called backwashing. This mechanism helps keep your water clearer and your fixtures free from staining.
What this system can handle
Designed for whole-house use, this system manages arsenic levels commonly found in well water. It’s built on a reliable platform that handles a range of home sizes, typically from one to several bathrooms. The air-injection process ensures the tank maintains its effectiveness by regularly renewing the media’s surface. It can operate continuously with scheduled backwashes, keeping maintenance minimal and performance steady over time.
What you actually get
When you order, you receive the complete working system: an air-injection oxidizing tank backed by a lifetime warranty on the tank itself, a Fleck 2510 SXT control valve that manages operation and backwashing, iron-based arsenic-selective media matched to your water, a bypass valve included so you can isolate the system during service without shutting off water to your home, and 10 feet of discharge hose for the drain line.
Is this the right size for you?
The system is sized based on the number of bathrooms and your water use, typically serving homes with one to six bathrooms. If you have a larger home or unusually high water demand, you may need a bigger system. Smaller units are available for compact needs, but for arsenic in well water affecting an entire house, this model provides a balanced capacity and performance.
Living with it
The system manages itself with scheduled backwashing to clean the media. You’ll need to keep the drain line clear and occasionally check the bypass valve to ensure smooth operation. Maintenance is straightforward and generally infrequent, focused mostly on inspections rather than daily attention.
What it won’t do
This system helps reduce arsenic but does not treat other water issues like hardness, bacteria, or sediment. If your water has multiple problems, additional treatment equipment may be necessary. Testing your water fully ensures you understand which systems fit your needs.
