How it works
Katalox Light oxidizes and filters iron, manganese and hydrogen sulfide, and the valve backwashes the trapped particles to drain.
Media benefits
Katalox Light catalytic filter media
- Removes iron, manganese and hydrogen sulfide (rotten-egg smell) in one tank
- Handles high flow rates in a compact tank
- Long media life
- Backwashes the trapped particles to drain automatically
- Air injection oxidizes iron and sulfur with plain air, so no chemicals are added

Fleck Black Manganese Stains System
A complete Fleck system — control head valve, tank and the right media — engineered to solve black manganese stains for good.
The Fleck system that solves it
This is a full Fleck system built on three parts that work together: a genuine Fleck 2510 SXT air-injection control valve on top of an air-injection oxidizing tank, filled with the media matched to your water. The valve draws a fresh air charge and backwashes on schedule, flushing the oxidized contaminants to drain automatically. One consistent Fleck platform means parts and service stay simple for the life of the system — fully serviceable, never a sealed throwaway unit.
What it does for your home
- Removes black manganese stains from your water
- Clear water with no orange, brown or black staining
- No rotten-egg or metallic smell
- Protects fixtures, laundry and appliances
- Self-cleaning — the system backwashes itself
