Birm Filter A backwashing-type filter containing special media that causes the iron in the air-injected water to precipitate throughout the filter bed This process produces an iron removal ca- pacity of up to 30,000 ppm. The media re- quires no chemical regenerant for oxygen enrichment.

Sizing Requirements Water Pressure The water system must have a pump big enough to deliver the recommended backwash rate with a minimum pressure at the inlet of the filter of 30 psi. If the existing system can- not do this, it must be upgraded to do so. Whenever possible, the water system should be adjusted to deliver at least 30 psi for even more satisfactory results.
Installation Instructions 1. If your hot water tank is electric, turn off the power to it to avoid damage to the element in the tank. 2. If you have a private well, turn the power off to the pump and then shut off the main wa- ter shut off valve.
