UNNECESSARY USAGE OF RETENTION TANKS

Normally the ONLY reason to use retention tanks is for harmful bacteria such as e-coli or coliform. The use of retention tanks for iron bacteria, sulfur and iron applications is a way to create extra income and service calls for in home sale companies and online companies who are either ignorant or looking for residual income from unsuspecting customers. For example chlorine neutralizes sulfur INSTANTLY, as they are both gases and cancel each other out, without the need for retention tanks. But many companies do it anyway knowing there is no need. For example a simple chlorine feeder and Terminox tank can remove iron bacteria and sulfur from problem well water with no carbon tanks or retention tanks at all.

In fact if you don’t have a 120 gallon retention tank for every 6 gallons of flow rate the only purpose for retention is extra maintenance and service calls. Buyers beware of any company who suggests retention tanks and/or carbon tank for iron bacteria, sulfur, manganese or anything else that does not include e-coli or coliform bacteria. Our techs can help you determine if you need these things quite easily. Normally you don’t! Please don’t hesitate to give us a quick call for a quick evaluation of your issue. Keep in mind our technicians are not allowed to ask you to buy anything or pressure you in ANY way. They just answer your questions and give you great advice. We are the online leader for water treatment worldwide.

NOTE: You MUST have sample ports before and after retention tanks in order to test chlorine levels.

WARNING: When it comes to water treatment equipment you should NEVER do business with ANY company who does not have the same certifications as we do. It is just plain crazy. There are so many "Fly by night" companies out there that it should be the very FIRST rule in your decision making process. It is your first, and some times ONLY, line of defense. Just look at our home page to see our many appropriate certifications. You will find them all in the top third of the page.
