System
Application and Sizing
This
unique chemical free ozone system solves common water quality problems
such as:
- Iron
(Brown Stains)
- Manganese
(Black/Grey Stains)
- Bacteria
- Hydrogen
Sulfide (Rotton Eggs)
- Low
pH (Acid Water)
- Taste
- Odor
- Color
This
system works with all types of atmospheric vented tanks including
above ground holding tanks, buried cisterns, and roof-top tanks
and is compatible with all tank materials.
Each
system can be used in a tank up to 10,000 gallons depending
on the severity of the contaminants and the daily water usage. The
system works on the concept of gallons per day and is independent
of the gallons per minute flow rate. The important rule is that
no more than 25% of the storage capacity should be used in a 24
hour period. Higher water usage could result in less than perfect
water because the ozone needs contact time with the water to do
its job, plus the water must pass through the in-tank filter multiple
times. In order to calculate minimum tank size, multiply the maximum
daily water usage times 4, although we recommend the tank size be
as large as can be comfortably accommodated.
The
best buy tank size for a single home in the US is 2500 gallons
which allows the homeowner to use up to about 600 gallons per day
for average contaminants (iron to ~ 10 ppm, or manganese to ~1 ppm,
or hydrogen sulfide to ~25 ppm, etc.) For severe contaminants (iron
to ~50 ppm, etc) we recommend either twin storage tanks in series
with a Triple O in each tank (preferred method), or a larger tank
with multiple Triple O units.
