Automated Iron Removal

Greensand Plus media oxidizes the dissolved iron and manganese common in well supplies, transforming them into solid particles that the media bed traps before they reach your fixtures. The Nelsen C-Series EE electronic time clock valve then backwashes the system on a programmed schedule, flushing the accumulated iron away and regenerating the media for continued performance without manual effort. This hands-off operation makes ongoing ownership simple and predictable.
