This water treatment system either uses air injection technology for water softening application for hard water, iron, and sulfur removal or functions as a salt free system in a backwashing acid neutralizer and iron filter.
The new system uses a micronizer (air injector) or air pump to introduce air into the well system and the air, which contains about 30% oxygen, replaces oxidative chemicals with no after taste or chlorine smell in the treated water.
The new water treatment system also eliminates the need for using chemicals like sodium hypochlorite bleach (for a chemical feed pump system) or potassium permanganate (for a greensand filter) to remove hydrogen sulfide gas in well water supplies.
Mr. Water Professional Water Treatment owner Scott Handy said that this new technology has the potential to change the way water softeners are designed and built not only in this country but around the world.
“The system is so easy to repair and maintain that its use will become universal in the residential water conditioning industry and make ‘Mr. Water’ a household name in the water treatment industry in the not so distant future,” Handy said.
