Bio Film in Menasha, WI
Challenge
We had a customer of ours reached out to us that they are having iron issues. The customer did have a water softener but still was having issues. We sent out a project coordinator too see what we could do. After testing the water and checking things out we found a heavy Bio Film in the water. This Bio Film is not harmful but is a big nuisance to the home. The iron in the water will attach to the bio film and pull it past the softener, therefore they still get iron stains in the house. The Bio Film will also clog plumbing and fixtures.
Solution
The best option for this heavy of a Bio Film is to chlorinate the water to kill the bio film then remove the chlorine so the water in the house is not heavily chlorinated. This treatment method is not used all the time anymore but for this case would be the best.
