Dual Tank — Well Water
Built for iron, sulfur and that rotten-egg smell.
Well water is a different problem from city water. This system pairs a softening tank with a Katalox Light tank to pull out iron, manganese and hydrogen sulfide — the cause of the smell, the orange staining and the metallic taste. Two ProValves, one per tank.
Best for: Homes on a private well
