Well water filtration equipment

Well water filtration equipment is a device that improves water quality through targeted filtration technology to address problems such as well water (mostly groundwater) containing silt, rust, colloids, microorganisms, unusual colors and odors (such as earthy smell), and heavy metals (such as excessive iron and manganese) in some areas. It is widely used in rural households, farms, small workshops and other scenarios to meet drinking, cooking, irrigation and other needs.

Core functions

divided into basic filtration (removing sediment and suspended matter to solve the "turbidity" problem) and deep purification (removing iron, manganese, microorganisms, and heavy metals; some models can achieve direct drinking), adapted to the characteristics of large fluctuations in well water quality.

Mainstream types and principles

Common "multi-media filters" (quartz sand to remove sediment + activated carbon to absorb odors), "iron and manganese removal filters" (through aeration + filter media oxidation to intercept iron and manganese ions to solve the problem of yellow water). Household use can also be combined with ultrafiltration membranes or small RO reverse osmosis modules to achieve direct drinking; some equipment has an automatic backwash function to reduce manual maintenance.

Key Features

Adaptable to well water characteristics, tolerant to certain water pressure fluctuations, and optimized for common groundwater issues such as excessive iron and manganese and high turbidity. Home models are of moderate size and can be wall-mounted or floor-mounted, while commercial/farm models are mostly vertical, high-flow models. Maintenance is convenient, with the core filter media requiring regular backwashing or replacement every 3-12 months, depending on the level of water contamination.
