It treats ferrous iron (up to 3 ppm), manganese (up to 2 ppm), and hydrogen sulfide (up to 10 ppm) simultaneously, without adding any chemicals to your water and without a backwash cycle, drain line, or electricity. If your \u003ca href=\"\/products\/well-water-test-kit\"\u003ewater test\u003c\/a\u003e shows iron staining, manganese discoloration, or a rotten egg sulfur smell within these levels, this system addresses all three at the point of entry so every tap in your home is protected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe ATOMUS MD1 is a patented solid-state oxidizer. Unlike chlorine injection, ozone, or potassium permanganate systems, it creates no disinfectant byproducts. The media is certified to \u003cstrong\u003eNSF\/ANSI 61\u003c\/strong\u003e and passes USEPA TCLP and California WET tests for safe disposal.
