Description
Cleaning orange-brown stains from sinks, tubs, and toilet tanks feels endless. The rusty rings reappear soon after scrubbing. That persistent rotten-egg smell in the shower lingers no matter what you try. This whole-house filter tackles those iron staining and sulfur odor issues at the source, treating every drop before it reaches your taps.
Scrubbing Rust and Smelling Sulfur Day After Day
Every few days, you’re at it again—scrubbing the orange-brown stains that show up on bathroom fixtures and in the toilet bowl. The shower doors bear a dull film that won’t wipe away easily, and even the laundry isn’t quite right; towels come out feeling stiff, with a slight off-smell that reminds you of pool water. The faint but unmistakable rotten-egg odor creeps into hot water, especially in the shower or kitchen sink, making morning routines less pleasant. These stains and smells keep coming back, no matter how hard you clean, and it’s wearing thin.
How the Filter Controls Cleaning Cycles and Keeps It Running
The system’s control head manages everything automatically. It’s designed to pull in a pocket of air, which helps oxidize the iron and sulfur compounds without chemicals. On a set schedule, the control head initiates a backwash cycle—flushing and lifting the filter media to rinse out trapped particles. This automatic cleaning keeps the system working efficiently, so it doesn’t need constant attention. You can program the cycle settings to fit your household’s water use, helping save water and energy over time.
The Media Inside That Does the Heavy Lifting
Inside the tank is a bed of catalytic manganese-dioxide media. This special media works by speeding up the oxidation process started by the air pocket, turning dissolved iron, manganese, and hydrogen sulfide into solid particles that the filter can trap. The “light” version of this media is included to handle these common well-water problems without adding chemicals. It’s a practical choice for removing both the rusty staining and the sulfur smell in one go.
The Tank Holds Your Water Treatment in One Place
The filter comes in a pressure vessel tank sized to suit your home’s whole-water supply. While exact dimensions are confirmed when we size the system for you, the tank is large enough to handle typical residential flow rates and water volumes. This means the filter can work steadily through your daily water use before needing to regenerate. We include a bypass valve so you can isolate the system during maintenance without cutting off water to your home.
Who Will This Filter Work Best For?
This system is designed to suit a typical single-family home with a whole-house water supply. It’s ideal if you’re dealing with a combination of iron staining, manganese taste or discoloration, and sulfur odor. If your water problems are limited to just one issue or if you have higher flow requirements, you might consider a different size or system. We can help determine the right fit based on your water test and household needs.
What You Receive and What to Do Next
Included with the system is a lifetime warranty on the pressure tank, covering the vessel itself. The control valve and electronics have the manufacturer’s warranty terms. We also include a bypass valve at no extra cost, so you can continue using water while the system is serviced. A 10-foot discharge hose for the drain line comes with the package for straightforward installation by your plumber. To get started, contact the WSP team for a free quote and personalized sizing. They’ll ask about your water problems and ZIP code to confirm the filter configuration and provide pricing details.
Who this size is right for
In terms of sizing, this is a whole-house system, plumbed into the main line so every tap in the house is treated. On a typical 1-inch service line that means a single-family home.
There is no published capacity figure for this item, so we size it from your water rather than from a table. Send your peak flow rate and a water test and we will confirm what you need - it costs nothing and it avoids buying twice.
