Nelsen Auto Iron Fltr 10x54 W/Media

The Nelsen Auto Iron Filter 10x54 offers a taller tank and greater media volume than the 10x44, making it ideal for homes with slightly higher water demand or heavier iron loads. Also known as part CAIF-10T-MG, this complete unit ships with Greensand Plus media installed and ready to start protecting your plumbing and fixtures from iron staining and the metallic taste it brings.

• 10" x 54" black polyglass mineral tank with extra media capacity
• Pre-loaded Greensand Plus media for iron and manganese reduction
• Nelsen C-Series EE 1" electronic time clock filter valve
• Bypass valve included for hassle-free maintenance
• Basket distributor and gravel support bed for even water flow
• Approximately 178 lbs complete; plumbing connections ordered separately

Iron-bearing well water leaves rust-colored stains on sinks, tubs, and laundry while imparting an unpleasant metallic taste to drinking and cooking water. This Nelsen system addresses the issue by using Greensand Plus to oxidize dissolved iron and manganese into solid particles, which are then trapped in the media bed. The Nelsen electronic time clock valve manages a scheduled backwash that purges the accumulated iron and regenerates the media, all automatically and without homeowner intervention.

The additional height of the 10x54 tank provides a deeper media bed and longer contact time, supporting effective treatment for households facing more challenging water conditions or somewhat higher daily usage. Setup is straightforward thanks to the factory-loaded media; just connect the plumbing fittings suited to your installation and program the control. With automated regeneration keeping maintenance low, this Nelsen iron filter delivers clearer, fresher water throughout the home and is a smart pick for well-water homeowners who want a dependable, hands-off solution with a bit of extra capacity in reserve.

Because iron levels and water chemistry vary from well to well, testing your supply helps confirm the system is correctly configured for lasting results. With the right setup, owners enjoy clearer water and freedom from the rust stains, clogged aerators, and odor that untreated iron typically brings. With its self-regenerating design and quality construction, it delivers dependable iron removal that protects your home and improves daily water quality for years.
