Iron removal filter
Iron is the stain you can see and the taste you can’t ignore — and it has to come out before anything else does.
The problem this solves
What changes when the water is right.
Dissolved iron looks clear at the tap, then turns water yellow or orange the moment it meets air — staining basins, tiles, and white laundry.
Iron fouls softening resin and clogs RO membranes. Left untreated upstream, it shortens the life of everything after it.
Borewell-fed homes carry iron more often than the municipal record suggests. Treat it first, or rebuild the softener inside a year.
An iron filter is a media bed, not a cartridge. Sized to the iron load and backwashed on cycle, it runs for years.
How we solve it
Sized to the water, the house, and the people in it.
Chemistry
decides the media.
Household
decides the capacity.
Architecture
decides where it goes.
Engineered, not bought off a shelf.
What’s included
Everything to put it in. Everything to keep it running.
Media vessel
FRP / SS316 vessel sized to duty cycle. Media chosen at survey.
Backwash valve + drain
Manual or automatic backwash. Drain sized so regeneration never backs up.
Installation
Plumbing, electrical, mounting, commissioning. Documented before handover.
Water analysis
Pre + post-install parameter readings. Repeated on every visit.
One-year warranty
All system components covered. Replacement, not repair-by-letter.
One-year AMC
Monthly visit. Media check, backwash verify, downstream parameter test.
Where it goes
Upstream of everything else.
Iron, sediment, and chlorine are pretreatment stages. They protect downstream resin, membranes, and softening media — or those systems fail faster.
Inlet
Treats every tap from a single point.
Pre-softener
Sits ahead of softening resin to prevent fouling.
Pre-RO
Sits ahead of RO membranes to prevent rapid clogging.
Configurations
Three or four sizes. Decided by load, not by SKU.
We don’t expose part numbers. The configuration is decided at survey based on bathroom count, household draw, and water chemistry.
Single-point
Bathroom or single line
One iron-removal vessel at the bathroom feed or a single line. Manual backwash.
Whole-house
2,000 — 4,000 LPH
Iron pre-treatment ahead of the HomeSoft train, so iron never reaches the softening resin. Automatic backwash on larger loads.
Heavy iron
Iron above 3 ppm
Oxidation plus media for high-iron borewells. Sized at survey to the measured load.

Iron, hardness, and the order they should be treated in
Iron, calcium-magnesium, particulate. Treating them in the wrong order rebuilds the softener inside a year. The right order, explained.
How to read a water test report
TDS, hardness, iron, pH, FRC — five numbers that decide what your water needs. What each one measures, what the thresholds mean, and what to ask the tester.
