Crystal Quest Iron and Manganese Water Filter

CRYSTAL QUEST® Whole House Iron and Manganese Water Filters efficiently remove remove up to 10 ppm of both ferric (oxidized) and ferrous (clear) iron and 5 ppm of manganese.

The media filter is an aluminum silicate media coated with manganese dioxide. This coating is highly concentrated with oxygen and acts as an insoluble catalyst to enhance the reaction between dissolved oxygen and the the iron compounds. In essence, the dissolved iron is oxidized at the surface of the media into a rust particle that can be effectively filtered from the water. The precipitated iron and manganese can then be easily removed from the system during backwash. No chemical regeneration is required and nothing is imparted into the drinking water.

For the filter to effectively remove iron, the pH of the raw water must be greater than 6.8. If both Iron and Manganese are present, the pH should be between 7.5 and 8.5. For Manganese removal the pH should be between 8.0 and 9.0 for best results. .

Operated under proper conditions, the filter media filter requires no chemical for maintenance and regeneration is not required. Iron removal efficiency is extremely high, with only periodic backwashing required. The filter media is a durable material with a long life and a wide temperature range.

Models: CQE-WH-01227 and CQE-WH-01228

• First stage, a 20" sediment filter cartridge that removes sediment, silt, sand and dirt. Also extends the life of water softener, water filters, and prevents damage to control valves or pumps.
• Second stage, water flows through an IRON AND MANGANESE removing media mineral tank, efficiently remove IRON AND MANGANESE.
• Third  stage, a 20" solid carbon cartridge for removing volatile organic carbon compounds (VOC's), insecticides, pesticides and industrial solvents.*
