Nelsen Automatic Air-Injection Iron Filter

Iron and the rusty stains, metallic taste, and clogged fixtures it causes are among the most common complaints on well water. The Nelsen Auto Iron Filter 10x44 (also part CAIF-10-MG) tackles the problem head-on, arriving pre-loaded with Greensand Plus media in a complete, ready-to-install package for residential homes. It is a compact, fully automated solution for households battling iron-laden supplies.

How It Removes Iron

Greensand Plus media oxidizes dissolved iron and manganese so the particles can be filtered out of the water rather than passing through to your taps. The Nelsen C-Series EE electronic time clock valve automatically initiates a backwash on a set schedule, flushing the captured iron from the media bed and regenerating the filter for continued performance. The result is clearer water with far less staining and metallic flavor, achieved with almost no hands-on effort from the homeowner.

Because this Nelsen iron filter ships with media already installed, setup is streamlined: simply add the plumbing connections that match your installation and program the time-clock control.
