ABOUT YOUR SYSTEM
The
Sidewindr
uses the air we breath to naturally reduce the effects of Iron, Manganese and Sulfur Gas.
By introducing oxygen to the water, contaminants chemically change to a physical particle that can be
mechanically filtered out of this water. This natural process called Oxidation, is usually accomplished in
other systems by using chemicals such as chlorine or potassium permanganate. Since the Sidewindr does
not use chemicals to treat the water, maintenance and chemical byproducts associated with these types of
systems is eliminated. The energy required to operate this system is provided by using extra power that is
available in your well pump to inject free air into the water. There are several normal side effects that may
or may not occur when water is treated in this manner:
1. Cloudy or milky appearance to the treated water.
This side effect is usually more pronounced when the Iron, Manganese or Sulfur Gas levels are low. Since
the Sidewindr uses oxygen for the treatment of these contaminants, it can be expected to have some
amount left over in the treated water. The higher the contamination levels are, the less oxygen there will
be. It is the oxygen that gives the cloudy or milky appearance. Once the faucet is opened and the water is
drawn, pressure is released and allows the oxygen to escape. This usually will take from a few seconds to
a minute depending on the amount of oxygen and the pressure. This noticeable side effect tells you the
system is working properly and also will actually enhance the palatability of the water. It’s oxygen that
gives water it’s fresh, crisp taste.
2. Sputtering or slight coughing from the hot water side faucets.
This is a normal phenomenon that usually occurs first thing in the morning. As the highly oxygenated
Sidewindr water is exposed to heat in the hot water tank a small amount of oxygen will separate. The
longer the water is allowed to sit in the hot water tank, the more this will be noticed.
Usually, this will only occur if the hot water is allowed to sit idle for eight (8) hours or more. Consequently,
when hot water is drawn after an extended period of no water use, a slight sputtering or coughing may be
experienced for a few seconds. If this causes the hot water to splash out of the sink, the problem is reduced
by simply turning on the cold water first and blending in the hot for several seconds. If there is a large
amount of free air noticed on the cold water side, there is a possible malfunction of the system and your
Clearion Dealer should be contacted to service the unit.
