Including filter system and high-performance Iron Staining filter.
Iron staining is one of those homeowners’ problems that shows up in every room that uses water. In Lois you might spot reddish-brown or yellow marks on tubs, sinks, toilets and fixtures, notice dingy laundry or spots on dishes, or detect a metallic taste when water has been sitting in pipes. Iron is a naturally occurring mineral, but when levels are high enough it leads to stubborn discoloration and extra cleaning and maintenance around the house.
Iron doesn’t always act the same, so what you see in one Lois home can differ from the next. Clear-water iron (ferrous) can look fine at the tap but turn rusty after contact with air, while red-water iron (ferric) causes immediate discoloration and sediment. Sometimes iron bacteria contribute a slimy buildup and a slippery film in toilet tanks or on fixtures. Even when the water is otherwise safe to drink, these cosmetic and operational issues make everyday chores more annoying.
For most households facing iron staining, a single oxidation and catalytic carbon whole-house system is the most effective option. This filter oxidizes dissolved iron so it can be captured, while the catalytic carbon media traps particles and helps improve taste and odor. Installed at the point the water enters your Lois home, it prevents fresh staining in bathrooms, kitchens and laundry and reduces iron build-up inside plumbing—a central solution when staining is your main concern.
A correctly sized catalytic carbon iron filter mounts on the main water line so every faucet and appliance in your Lois home benefits. It’s particularly handy for intermittent iron problems because it works continuously without the need for pitchers or under-sink units. Performance depends on matching the system to the form of iron present and any companion issues like sediment, manganese, or sulfur-like odors; Mr. Pure Water can diagnose the cause of staining and recommend the right single-tank setup for your home.
