The Iron Breaker III uses an oxidation process to eliminate iron and H2S without chemicals, air compressors, aerators, and other complex equipment.

Optional Ozone Generator

When you add Charger’s ozone generator option, the Iron Breaker III system is automatically sanitized during the regeneration process for simple and affordable upkeep.

The Iron Breaker with the Fleck 2510 Control has met the Water Quality Association’s stringent requirements and has been awarded the Gold Seal. This process “ensures that the product is constructed or formulated from safe materials, that claims listed on the packaging are backed by test data, and the product will hold up under normal usage conditions.”  https://www.wqa.org/product-cert

The Iron Breaker III stores a “bubble” of air, compressed by your well pressure, within the media tank. As your water passes thru the air, the iron or H2S is converted to a particle which is then trapped by the catalytic filter media in the tank while the air “bubble” is gradually consumed by the passing water. When the system regenerates, the unit first “backwashes” itself, removing trapped iron particles. The system then replenishes the “air bubble” by drawing in atmosphere, temporarily emptying the tank of all water, and transferring oxygen molecules into and on the surface of the media bed where all oxidation occurs. The system then returns to the “service” position, again filtering your water.
