    And the injector has to be mounted between the pump and the pressure tank, which fits your picture. Does your iron filter work well for you?

    Works good. Because of the amount of iron in our water it is set up to backwash every second night. It's about due for rebedding as it's been about 5 years since it was done.
    We also have a water softener which is after the iron filter.

    I know someone that drives that way too!

    What's the brand/model of your filter? Any idea of what your iron content is before filtering?

    I have no idea what the brand/model is, the unit was in the house when we moved in 13 year ago and there's no ID on it.
    Iron content according to different tests over the years varies from 3.02 mg/L to 5.16 mg/L.
