How it works
The valve draws a pocket of air into the top of the tank. Water passes through the air, which oxidizes iron, manganese and hydrogen sulfide into particles, and the media bed filters them out. Every day the valve backwashes the bed, sends the trapped particles to drain and refreshes the air pocket.
Media benefits
- 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, manganese and sulfur with plain air, so no chemicals or chlorine are added
Why this system costs what it does
| This system | Typical lower-priced kits | |
|---|---|---|
| Iron and sulfur treatment | Air injection: oxidizes with plain air, no chemicals | Often chlorine or permanganate feed, or no oxidation step |
| Filter design | Automatic daily backwash keeps the media bed clean | Often a non-backwashing upflow head or a cartridge housing |
| Bypass valve | 3/4" bypass included | Often not included or an extra option |
| Media | Named media, sized to the tank | Media type or amount often not stated |
| Delivery | Ships pre-built, ready to install | Often ships in pieces for you to assemble and load |

Ships preloaded and ready to install. The Katalox-Light media is already loaded in the tank and the control valve is mounted and set up at the factory, so there is no media to pour. Set it in place, connect it to your plumbing and plug it in.
The AIO 13" x 54" Katalox Filter is the flagship of the AIO Katalox line, pairing the largest tank with premium Katalox Light media and an efficient Enpress Vortech tank. Built for large homes confronting iron, manganese, and sulfur, this single-tank air injection system delivers high-capacity, multi-contaminant treatment without chemicals, addressing several of the toughest well-water problems in one comprehensive unit.
Katalox Light media excels at removing oxidized iron, manganese, and hydrogen sulfide, the trio responsible for discolored, smelly, and staining well water. The system's air pocket oxidizes these contaminants as water enters the tank, and the Katalox Light bed then captures them. The Enpress Vortech tank improves backwash efficiency with its internal plate design, helping conserve water during the automatic daily regeneration managed by the Fleck 2510SXT valve.

With its 13" diameter tank, this premium system provides the greatest service flow and media capacity in the AIO Katalox range, making it the right fit for large families or properties with heavy, mixed contaminant loads. Katalox Light's versatility is invaluable where manganese accompanies iron and sulfur. The Vortech tank keeps regeneration water-efficient, and the included bypass valve eases service. Installing on the main line at the point of entry, this top-tier AIO Katalox filter offers comprehensive, low-maintenance whole-house treatment for the most challenging well water.
As the flagship of the AIO Katalox line, this 13-inch system is built for the most demanding situations: large homes with high water use and complex chemistry involving iron, manganese, and sulfur together. Katalox Light's versatility and the Vortech tank's efficient backwash make it both capable and reasonably economical to run. A complete water test before purchase ensures this top-tier capacity is correctly matched, after which the system delivers comprehensive, chemical-free, whole-house treatment with the low maintenance the AIO platform is known for. Over time, treating three contaminants in one tank saves both effort and the cost of running separate systems.
