Hi,
My well water has sulfur and iron... it also has some hardness.
The current water treatment system (just moved into this house 2 months ago) includes three particle filters (10 microns), a water softener, and a UV light to kill bacteria.
Even with all of that, I still have discolored toilet bowls, yellowish ice cubes, and a sulfur smell that comes and goes. I just changed two of the three filters and that helped, but not much.
Looking into a new system and while chlorine injection has been around for a long time, it seems that peroxide injection is the latest and greatest.
Any experience you'll care to share?
From what I've learned (two quotes) it seems that the peroxide system is less expensive to buy and maintain.
Due to that, I'm leaning toward peroxide.
If I go with peroxide, do I still need the UV light to kill the coliform bacteria?
Thanks,
Doug
