I just looked at a friends water filter set up and he has two Kinetico filters set up like batteries. The strange thing is that the first system has the water feed going in and coming out with the arrows. The next one in line has the feed going against the arrows. That is were my confusion comes in. He has alot of iron in his water and the water filter Co. comes out every year to clean the systems, because the feed lines going to the filters get clogged with iron. The first system in line is stuck in the regeneration phase. He has already done the screw driver trick and it will not work anymore so it is bypass for now.
So he has two of the filter tanks with the clear dome on top the rest is black. Then after these tanks there is an aerator. Then after that is what looks like a water softener. My friend informed me that the last tank was there when he bought the house and the kinetico people left it in line.
I gave him a test kit so we can find out how much iron and other stuff he has in his water. I want to know if he has what he needs or if it over kill and he can dump some of the stuff. I would also like to know if he needs something better, or different.
I know it is not much to go on and am very sorry that i did not take a pic or coppy down the numbers off the tank. I know he needs something to keep the iron out. I just think there is something better.
