Description
The Nelsen Auto Iron Filter 13x54 brings high-capacity iron removal to larger well-water homes in a convenient, parcel-ready format. This complete system features a spacious 13" x 54" black polyglass tank pre-loaded with Greensand Plus media and is packaged for parcel truck delivery, making serious iron treatment easy to order and install without arranging freight shipping.
Iron and manganese dissolved in well water cause rust-colored staining and a metallic taste that affect everything from drinking water to laundry and appliances. This Nelsen system addresses both by using Greensand Plus media to oxidize those minerals into filterable particles. The Nelsen C-Series EE electronic time clock valve then automatically backwashes the media bed on a programmed schedule, flushing captured iron and regenerating the filter for ongoing, consistent performance.
