How Your Pro Ox 5900-BT-AIR Works
The Pro Ox 5900-BT-AIR, when properly
applied, is an efficient and cost effective system
for the removal of iron and odor.
The Pro Ox 5900-BT-AIR control valve
maintains a compressed “air pocket” in the
filter free space top of the tank while system is
in service. As the water passes through the air
pocket, iron is oxidized. Additionally, dissolved
oxygen is added to the water.
The Pro Ox filter media bed then removes the
iron from the water.
The backwash rinse cycle
(usually done at night, every 2-4 days) will
remove accumulated iron and replenish the
filter media bed.
Each night a fresh pocket of air is drawn into
system to allow maximum oxidation.
Note About Aeration
The Pro Ox 5900-BT-AIR utilizes air, oxidation
and filtration for the removal of Iron.
You might notice a bit of tiny air bubbles in the
water during first week or so after installation
and this is normal but goes away after
installation.
Some well waters do not need aeration and this feature can be turned off if applicable. You can
also start the first 2 weeks without aeration and see how it works for your water and turn on
the aeration later quickly and easily.
