Fleck 5800-SXT Series AOM Birm, Iron & Manganese Whole House Filter System by Pentair
SKU: 5800SXT-AOM-BIRM
|
Overview
The Fleck 5800-SXT represents a great step forward in the world of self-cleaning filters. Fleck has always made reliable workhorse water softeners, and filters, and while these tried and true machines are still in service today they were lacking some modern sophistication and conveniences. The 5800SXT has brought them into the modern era, customizable, efficient, multitasking machines that meet today's demands.
The AOM (Air-Over-Media) Advantage
A chemical-free way of removing iron and manganese from your water supply. A small air pocket is created inside the main tank over the media which together causes the iron and manganese to oxidize and become a particle which is them trapped by the Birm media. The cleaning cycle removes this from the Birm, repacks the media and re-creates a new air pocket.
Is this system & method right for you?
There are a few things you need to consider before selecting this method of removal.
Is the pH of your water from 6.8 to 9.0? If your water is outside of these parameters or even if you sit on the edge, its best to write or call to discuss a few ways of improving your removal conditions. Don't know your pH... you need a water test.
What is the intended maximum flow rate in your home? Why is this important... a single cubic foot of birm media has a maximum flow rate of 5gpm (gallons per minute). So a 1cuft system is a 5gpm system, 1.5cuft = 7.5gpm, 2.0cuft = 10gpm Don't know your flow rate... Fixture counts and the number of people is a practical way when you have the endless water supply, well-pumping systems often are the limiting factor so a bucket test using a hose from your manifold or tank tee will work great.
H2S, Hydrogen Sulphide must be removed prior to entering this system, no oils present, no polyphosphates. Chlorine should be below 0.5ppm, Organic matter should be reduced below 5ppm.
You can learn more about Birm media on their brochure here.
