Autotrol Heavy Metals System
Head valve + tank + media, matched to solve heavy metals — sized and shipped free.
Heavy metals like lead, mercury, copper, and nickel lurking in your water supply can silently degrade your home’s plumbing, stain fixtures, and worst of all, threaten your family’s health with toxic exposure. These metals cause gritty sediments, dull taste, and discoloration in water that no amount of boiling or filtration can fix. Left untreated, they may corrode pipes, reduce appliance lifespan, and introduce harmful elements into your daily water usage, costing you thousands over time in repairs and medical bills.
The system that fixes it
The Autotrol Heavy Metals System is designed specifically to tackle the persistent problem of heavy metals in residential water. At its core is the trusted Autotrol 263 air-injection control valve, a genuine brand valve that reliably manages backwashing and regeneration cycles to keep your filtration media performing at peak efficiency. Unlike generic valves, this valve ensures easy serviceability and durability, so your system runs smoothly for years. The system features a robust air-injection multi-media tank, expertly engineered to maximize contact time between your water and the filtration media. The media bed combines KDF-55, catalytic carbon, and garnet to capture lead, mercury, copper, and nickel effectively, removing these contaminants before they reach your taps.

How the media works
The heart of this system’s filtration is a carefully engineered multi-media bed combining three powerful components. KDF-55 is a specialized copper-zinc alloy that uses an electrochemical process to capture and neutralize heavy metals like lead, mercury, copper, and nickel. This media inhibits bacterial growth and prevents media clogging, keeping the system effective longer. Complementing KDF-55, the catalytic carbon enhances removal of organic compounds and chlorine, improving taste and odor while supporting heavy metal reduction. Garnet, a dense mineral, acts as a final polishing layer to trap fine particles, ensuring the water exiting your system is crystal clear. Together, these media work in synergy to reduce heavy metals efficiently, protecting your water supply at every stage.
