My recently drilled will apparently have at least 50ppm of Hydrogen Sulfide, based upon the driller's "nose" and on what each adjacent neighbor reports with regard to their wells.
I know that Gary will recommend a chlorine erosion feeder, since that's apparently the core of his business.
But, from my readings, it really looks like a H2O2 feeder is a better alternative, using a proportionally-metered peristaltic injection pump, such as the Stenner.
I'm looking at a packaged system, using the Stenner, followed by a gravel/charcoal filter. I admit I'm a little confused by the need for the charcoal component of the filter, since charcoal doesn't remove H2O2, plus there is a need for an H2O2 residual at the tap for testing purposes. I would have thought a particulate filter to remove oxidized iron and sulphate particles would be all that was needed...
The packaged systems I'm considering are here:

I'm not looking for another pissing contest between Gary and Andy, but just want some objective feedback on my tentative decision, hopefully from industry-insiders who are not trying to sell something.
Regards, and thanks-
