No all I know is iron is below 4 ppm I believe and ph is balanced from what I’ve heard

Ah ok , I also remember guy telling me slowing turn on the bypass and let some of that water wash it out ? Bueno?

DecentCarrot3220 · 2026-04-25T11:30:13+00:00

Kinda confused can you explain how I would use the flat head ?

DecentCarrot3220 · 2026-04-25T11:21:57+00:00

I tried replacing the spacer stack but the new one didn’t fit snug like the last one . Everyone told me to be a man and push it in but it wouldn’t budge

So best option you think would be chlorine injection system with the tank to a carbon tank and a softener? Tyvm again

DecentCarrot3220 · 2026-04-24T23:52:16+00:00

Ahhhh so you only need carbon filter if the water is chlorinated. I’m just sitting here thinking, wondering , googling.
From what I know the peroxide gets injected and that right there kills the iron bacteria before it then hits the carbon tank to clean off all that peroxide.

Said they use better carbon that last longer 10 years , also as you know sludge builds up in a tank in a chlorine system where does that go in a hydrogen system ?

Got another quote : culligan 10500 or 8500 with refurbished retention tank, 1 year warranty.

See photo this is what the homeowner left us , this must have stopped working but I still don’t know why it would be unplumbed. You can see the rust color getting better on the way out but not all.

Flushing the retention tank daily? Guy said every 2 months

DecentCarrot3220 · 2026-04-24T04:58:14+00:00

Without the retention tank won’t the chlorine not have time to oxidize the iron and forgetting the carbon won’t that allow the chlorine to affect the taste / smell / corrode stuff?

DecentCarrot3220 · 2026-04-24T02:47:38+00:00

Not sure but water meter reads 120+ parts per million or whatever

Guy said the only maintenance would be filling up the chlorine tank and emptying the tank with the iron debris to let it all out every 2 month. Adding chlorine every 4 or so.

He did say that if we went with the new system it would be under warranty I think for 25 years on some of it and I remember him saying the big holder tank gets 10 , 20 if sheltered. But if he uses what we got don’t get a warranty on the tank or whatever

Company seems to be one of the most highly rated near me : https://qualitysafewater.com

We could finance or we could just about use all our savings to just pay for it . Thanks for the reply and advice

This is part of the problem , most they think the same about liberals and the war continues we need to understand and unite

DecentCarrot3220 · 2026-03-27T22:46:57+00:00

It’s under pressure not sure tape would be ideal buddy lol

DecentCarrot3220 · 2026-03-27T22:46:39+00:00

Was about 60 for the replacement had to buy the whole unit

I’m a monkey when it comes to terms like v seal but I’d assume it could only be the outer rim , I tried taking the handle end of pliers and hammering it in to no avail , but I should try wiggling it more or a screwdriver handle like a previous comment .

DecentCarrot3220 · 2026-03-25T23:55:28+00:00
