Well and Groundwater: Reading a Water Analysis Before You Buy

Oct 27, 20265 min readVOLARDDA Engineering Team443 views

The most common mistake is treating iron with a softener. Resin coats with iron oxide within weeks; the unit then needs replacement rather than regeneration.

  • Look at iron, manganese, hardness, TDS and turbidity first — those five decide 90% of the configuration.
  • Aeration + sand filtration for iron; catalytic media when manganese is also present.
  • If TDS is high as well, the filtration stage becomes pre-treatment for RO rather than a stand-alone solution.
