Do you notice your clear glass of water or the water in your bathtub turning orange if left standing for a while? If so, you likely have elevated levels of “clear water iron” in your water.

Clear Water Iron, or Ferrous Iron, is naturally present in many well waters. When its concentration exceeds 0.3 mg/L (PPM), it can cause reddish-brown stains on bathtubs, laundry, dishes, utensils, glassware, and appliances like dishwashers and washing machines. It can also create deposits in pipes, pressure tanks, and water heaters, reducing water flow and pressure. This iron affects the flavor and color of food and beverages, potentially reacting with tannins in coffee, tea, and some alcoholic drinks to form a black sludge, impacting both taste and appearance.

The Rainfresh CAFO948 Chemical-free Iron Filter effectively removes iron from all the water in your home, including bathrooms, kitchen, laundry, and even outdoor taps. Utilizing advanced oxidation and filtration technology, the Rainfresh CAFO948 filter converts dissolved ferrous iron into filterable rust particles (ferric iron), which it then removes, providing you with clear, iron-free water.

Every few days, the unit automatically cleans itself through a backwashing process, flushing out trapped iron and other particles. A major advantage of the CAFO948 Iron Filter is that it operates without the need for salt, chemicals, or an air injector (venturi), making it a hassle-free solution for iron-free water.
