Hardness Minerals, Iron, Odor and Stained tinted water are all undesirable characteristics of water. You may have some or all of these problems. Champion has solutions for any water problem, using dependable long-lasting water systems that have stood up to the test of time. Over the years we have used many dealers and we have systems in use now that we know will provide years of service.

Residential or Commercial we offer custom designed systems to meet your individual need, including:

• Water Softeners: Remove minerals that cause spots on dishes and stains in the tub and shower walls, we add premium white resin inside the unit to remove the yellow color caused by tannins at no additional charge, many dealers use this as an “ad-on” sale after the unit is installed. Units regenerate automatically with salt from a stand alone brine tank. Regeneration occurs at a preset time and day. Flow rates available from 9-25 gpm. Metered valves may be added for heavy water usage.

• Odor-masters: This is an in-line chlorinator used to remove sulfur odor. Chlorine pellets are added monthly. This neutralizes the odor, the water then passes through a carbon filter to remove the chlorine and it also improves the taste. Carbon filters alone will not effectively remove sulfur. NOTE: Do not use chlorine pellets that are not NSF approved for potable drinking water systems. Many dealers sell products that are not NSF approved, those chlorine products are for pool systems and contain chlorine stabilizers, not fit for human consumption.

• Iron Filters: Remove heavy iron concentrations from drinking water supplies. They use Potassium Permanganate for regeneration. Most units are regenerated manually once per month, although the units are available with automatic valves. Iron filters will remove low concentrations of odor and sometimes are used for this purpose.

• Odor Oxidizers: Removes sulfur odor by converting Hydrogen Sulfide into water and precipitated sulfur compounds. The unit uses a booster pump and a contact tank, sometimes two tanks if sulfur levels are very high or if high flow rates are expected. The unit is very reliable and requires no regeneration and no chemicals to purchase, basically once it’s installed you can forget about it, twice a year simply open a drain valve to flush any sediment. An added bonus is the extra water pressure to the house from the booster pump.

• Reverse Osmosis: The highest level of water treatment. These are point of use, meaning they are installed under the counter in the kitchen or bathroom and are rated at 25-50 gallons per day. Primarily, they are used for drinking water, to make coffee or tea, instead of buying bottled water. Pre and post filters are changed annually and the membranes are replaced about every three years. They require no regeneration.

• Sediment Filters: These are in/out cartridges used solely to capture fine sands, clay or sediment that is pumped from the well. They are installed before the first piece of water treatment. Remove the canister cover at least once a month, and wash out the cartridge and canister. After, 3-4 months loss of pressure may result and the cartridge will need to be replaced.

Commercial Water Treatment is similar to residential, although the flow rates may be much higher, meaning larger tanks, valves and distributor tubes. For Public water supplies, the local health department may require liquid pre-chlorine injection, contact tanks, meters and post chlorination.
