Comprehensive Filtration

01 Sediment Filter

The 5 micron prefilter system helps protect your appliances and filtration system from the damaging effects of dirt, debris, and other small particles.

02 Chlorination System

In the patented mixing chamber, chlorine concentrate collides with your water to reduce nuisance organisms.

03 Greensand Plus Iron Reduction

This stage oxidizes and traps iron and manganese in a filter media and gravel underbed before flushing them out via backwashing.

04 Controller

Backwashing cycles are controlled by the electronic meter on the top of the tank. This can be set to backwash every specified number of days or as the electronic head recognizes that a certain amount of water has been used.

05 Carbon Filtration

Our carbon filtration system improves your water’s taste and odor while reducing chlorine, chloramines, particulate matter, and other treatment chemicals.

06 Water Softener Alternative

Our water softener alternative can help reduce hard water scale buildup and plumbing clogs without using electricity or wasting water.

What is the average life expectancy of an Iron & Manganese Filter and Pelican Water Softener Alternative Combo System?

Depending on your water quality and the corresponding levels of iron, your new treatment system can last between 10 and 15 years if you keep up with routine maintenance.

What kind of maintenance should I expect?

You should add chlorine to the system every 2-3 months based on usage. Replace the sediment pre-filter every six months and replace the carbon and iron filtration media after five years.

What system is right for my home?

The WF6-P is sized for homes with 1 to 3 bathrooms and has a maximum flow rate of 10 GPM. The WF10-P is sized for homes with 4 to 6 bathrooms and has a maximum flow rate of 15 GPM.

How does the Water Softener Alternative not use electricity or create wastewater?

The up-flow design means there are no moving parts in the Water Softener Alternative. This design eliminates backwashing, so no wastewater needs to be flushed, and no electronic head is required.
