WSP Whole House Iron & Sulfur Filter - Automatic Air-Injection

If your water leaves orange-brown stains on sinks and toilets, or your showers and hot water smell like rotten eggs, this filter helps reduce those iron and sulfur problems. It’s an automatic system that works quietly to keep your whole house’s water clearer and fresher.

The problem you’re facing

Rust-colored stains ring your toilet tanks and show up on faucets. Your clothes might come out dingy even after a wash. The smell of rotten eggs comes from your hot water, making showers unpleasant. These signs point to iron and sulfur in your water supply, common issues for well owners and some city water systems.

Why this happens

Iron dissolved in your water turns to solid particles when exposed to air, leaving those stubborn stains. Sulfur in the water produces hydrogen sulfide gas, which smells like rotten eggs. A simple test to confirm is to collect some water in a clear container and let it sit; iron will settle as reddish particles, and sulfur can cause a noticeable odor.

The cost of leaving it untreated

Iron stains build up on fixtures, making cleaning harder and eventually causing permanent discoloration. The sulfur smell can linger in your water heater and pipes, affecting your entire home’s water quality. Over time, iron deposits can clog appliances and plumbing, reducing their lifespan and efficiency without any obvious sign until costly repairs are needed.

How this system works

This filter uses a natural process called oxidation, where iron and sulfur change form when exposed to air, making them easier to catch. Inside, special filter media traps these particles so they don’t pass through to your taps. The system automatically flushes itself on a schedule, cleaning out the trapped iron and sulfur to keep working smoothly without regular attention from you.

What this system can handle

Designed for whole-house use, it reduces moderate levels of iron and sulfur and works steadily for a typical family home. It manages enough water for daily household needs without frequent servicing. The automatic backwash cycle keeps the filter ready for continuous use, handling your water’s iron and sulfur issues reliably. This model fits well where moderate iron staining and sulfur odors are a concern but isn’t sized for very high levels or additional contaminants.

What you actually get

The system includes a 10-inch by 44-inch mineral tank with a lifetime warranty on the pressure vessel, ensuring long-term durability. A control valve with an electronic timer manages the cleaning cycles automatically. A bypass valve is included so you can isolate the filter for maintenance while keeping water flowing to your home. You also get 10 feet of discharge hose for the drain line, making installation straightforward for your plumber.

Is this the right size for you?

This filter suits smaller to medium-sized homes with moderate iron and sulfur levels in their water. If your water tests show very high iron content or additional complex issues, you may need a larger or multi-stage system. Conversely, if your water has only minor staining and odors, a smaller unit might be sufficient. Our team will help identify the right fit based on your specific water test results and household size.

Living with it

Once installed by your licensed plumber, the system runs mostly on its own. The automatic backwash happens on a timer, so you won’t need to intervene frequently. Occasionally, you may check the bypass valve and connections or replace parts as needed according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. The lifetime warranty on the tank provides peace of mind about the main components’ longevity.

What it won’t do

This filter reduces iron and sulfur but doesn’t treat hardness (calcium and magnesium), sediment, or bacteria. If you have other water quality issues, you’ll need additional equipment tailored to those problems. It’s important to identify your water’s full profile before choosing the right system.
