If you live in Osgoode, Ontario you already know that iron can leave rust stains on sinks, tubs, toilets, clothing and linens. It can also, in some circumstances, form scale and clog plumbing in water using appliances, making water turn brown as well as smell and taste bad.
Iron comes in a wide variety of forms, which means that the typically recommended “one size fits all” solution or systems, offered by many water treatment brands, may or may not deliver the correct solution for your specific water issue.
Generally, a water-softening device will only remove the “ferrous” or Fe2 type of iron. The reality is that, once the iron has become bonded with any organics in the water, this type of device will have virtually no effect. Nelson Water offers tailored solutions, which will typically include a chemical injection system, followed by a retention tank, a turbidity filter and finally a carbon filter to eliminate any iron and or sulfur bacteria content from your rural well water supply. This set of tools will deliver odour and bacteria free water that actually tastes good with no chlorine residual or aftertaste. The only way to implement the correct solution is through the testing of the actual water, which must be done at the site location, because once the water becomes exposed to air, it changes form. pH is one of the most critical elements in controlling the effectiveness of the equipment used for iron reduction.
In addition to leaving a yellowish tinge to the water and stains on sinks, tubs and toilets, Tannins also tend to bind up organically with iron, making the process much more complicated. Nelson Water offers a tailored solution, which will characteristically include a chemical injection system using a coagulant that brings together the dissolved organic matter into clumps that can be more easily filtered out, followed by a retention tank, a turbidity filter and lastly a carbon filter to eliminate any leftover taste in your rural well water supply. The other protocol Nelson Water employs, when the tannin is not bound up with iron, is an ion exchange system similar to how a softener works. In this case, exchanging the tannin ions for sodium, rather than calcium or magnesium ions.
That off-putting, rotten egg odour in your water is due to gas. Hydrogen sulfide gas. This is a problem common to many rural wells throughout the Osgoode area. When hydrogen sulfide is dissolved in water, it causes that objectionable rotten egg odour and cloudiness. Additionally, gasses dissolved in your water can be damaging to your plumbing system, as they cause excess wear and tear on washers, valves and seats as well as causing severe corrosion to the actual copper pipes and brass fittings. Nelson Water uses numerous proprietary protocols to ensure that hydrogen sulfide gas is eliminated from well water supplies. Using the ETF AIV-10 air-aspirated iron and sulfur filter, which also removes manganese (known to leave terrible black stains everywhere) the ETF AIV-10 has the ability of oxidizing the sulfur, iron and manganese into a precipitate which is filtered out by the media bed in the ETF AIV-10. In severe cases of iron, hydrogen sulfide or manganese, Nelson Water Nelson Water offers a tailored solution, which will often include a chemical injection system using chlorine or hydrogen peroxide followed by a retention tank, a turbidity filter and lastly a carbon filter to eliminate any remaining any taste or odour from your rural well water supply.
In some specific areas of the greater Osgoode, Ontario region, namely the former Champlain Sea area, Nelson Water has an unbeaten track record of eliminating sodium from well water supplies. The former Champlain Sea locale was a temporary inlet of the Atlantic Ocean created by the retreating glaciers during the last ice age. The Sea once included lands in what are now the provinces of Quebec and Ontario. These areas, as previous salt water basins, are rich in sodium chloride which in turn, like sea water is very corrosive on copper, brass and other metallic plumbing fixtures and water using appliances. By using a light commercial WHRO (Whole House Reverse Osmosis System) Nelson Water is able to filter and deliver high quality, great tasting sodium free water.
Since private well water, final barrier protection, is the sole responsibility of the homeowner, Nelson Water provides innovative treatment systems to address critical water issues found in rural well water, like lead contamination, toxic chemicals (from manufacturing and agricultural runoff) as well as naturally occurring uranium /radon. Nelson Water has a 30-year PLUS track record of successfully removing these dangerous contaminants from Osgoode, Ontario well water. Although the device of choice, in these applications, is typically a three-stage reverse osmosis system, (the EcoWater ERO 375) there are also specific types of nutshell carbon (e.g. coconut shell) that can be effective. Nelson Water offers unrivaled technical capabilities, particularly in managing the removal of toxic chemicals and the abatement of any meaningful levels of uranium /radon which are common in the rural area of Osgoode, Ontario.

Although Osgoode does a great job at providing potable water, the municipality actually adds fluoride to the water, which is technically a chemical designed to prevent tooth decay. Fluoride is a controversial topic, as there is scientific evidence that there may be health issues associated (both positive and negative) with the chemical. As a homeowner you have the option to remove it as it enters your home if you desire. Nelson Water typically uses the ERO 375 Reverse Osmosis System, which is the same technology used to produce commercially bottled water.
