Amazing Jose. I am definitely going to give this a try. What I usually would do is simply run my well point water for about 20 to 30mins on the lawn. Then move the hose to the pool for top up and add a quarter of metal remover. Part trouble with this is that metal remover also lowers your PH level. One then needs to add soda ash to raise the PH level to the recommended levels again. Thanks for sharing.

you helped me a lot BUDDY THANKS A MILLION

Thx Jose . Very helpful

Great videos What additional steps or changes would you do if you also wanted to use the water for household use and drinking. Also for garden irrigation?

Great Video, Thanks. I live in Cape Town and have implemented a similiar system to my well water. My pool is full and beautiful blue and I also have connected my toilets to the jojo tank.

Awesome! Thanks

Thank you, Thank you sir. This is very helpful.

Hi Jose...Thanks for your video. Towards the end (7:48) where you say to put the cloth in the mesh and put hth on it, and spray the water down...what way do you use the chlorine? Do you do it will chlorine granuals or use split up chlorine tablets or similar, and what amount to use please? Thank you very much...

does adding alum help ??? if yes..what stage of the process shld it be put

Is this water usable for the garden?

That's great!

Can this be used to remove Iron Bacteria from Groundwater?

Are you deleting the iron or just changing the color. Some treatments can interfere with the testing of iron.

Absolutely love your vid... thanks so much...hv been running crazy trying to sort my pool...gonna try ur way.. thanks so much again for simplifying the process

Hi, can you share any success trying this method?

Thanks for this great video man

Boss what's pH on this tap water these days and does carbon filters aid in leveling out the pH to be at a reasonable ph? Other thing what do think the pH is when I refill water from PNP or checkers how acidic is the water.

You can use a Venturi to aerate the water coming from your pump instead of a spray. would it work better? There are a few good videos on KZread showing how to make one.

for a venturi to operate correctly you need enough pressure and he is getting 1020L to an hour on a 15mm hose... so a venturi will not operate with that flow rate... he needs to at least double his flow rate for a venturi to create a venturi effect. you can maybe throttle the end of the pipe where the water dispenses but im afraid the pressure will still not be enough and the water will then choose to pass through the venturi air suction side...

How can the been removed

The name of purifier iron inside the while how can we remove

Great video ! My wellwater has 15 mg/ litre but was is absolutely clear. Want to clean up the iron so I can use in toilets that are on septic tank. Will the high chlorine level damage bacteria essential for septi ctank operation? How do you remove the setteled iron that builds up?

@josedasilva6242

Unfortunately no, you will have to use some other treatment process. The chlorine levels might be too high and will kill the bacteria needed in the septic tank. The settled iron is removed at the bottom of the tank’s inlet/outlet.

It all about your %sodium and other parameters. e.g. calcium, potassium, magnesium ,sodium, chloride, sulphate, boron, concentrations, together with conductivity, TDS AND pH.

Thanks for the video. You gave me a great idea. Anyway, I need your advise. I pump water from my shallow well into my 55 gallon rain barrel to water my plants. If in case of emergency and I want to drink the water, if I use my 1" chlorine tablets, how many will I put in my floater? Or using the 3% Hydrogen Peroxide from local store, how many cups will I put to remove iron and rotten egg smell? Thanks for the video.

Easy Johnny As I mentioned I would like to move away from the chlorine process, because this process does not remove all metals (e.g. aluminium). In order to remove all metals, a new dosing solution will have to be implemented. I have been doing extensive experiments in order to establish a hassle-free dosing solution/system. If you live in the Western Cape, as from 1st September 2017, you can give me a call on (cell no. 079 8018090), I will be doing house visits with my different filter cartridges (e.g. activated carbon, GAC/KDF filters and colour, metal removal resin’s) in order to establish what is the best way in treating your underground water. My equipment will show you how your final water will be, and maybe you will not need to do the pre-dosing process, but only use filter cartridges and how long it will last before replacing.

Jose da Silva thanks for the response. I live in Florida. Yes I will try filtration after I first oxygenate my well water by placing it in my 55 gallon barrel then just like you will filter it. I'm thinking of using 35% Hydrogen Peroxide to neutralize the Chlorine before filtration.

I have learned much from the video, thank you very much however, I have some queries and I am sure someone won't hesitate to answer them. My queries are as follows: 1. What is the purpose of sand? Is it to remove iron and manganese particles from the water? 2. Is the sand used fine sand or coarse sand. If the sand used is fine sand, how fine it is? 3. Can I use sand available in the local area or are they specially treated or cleaned sand? 4. In the video, when water is filtered through the sand why is it passed from the bottom of the sand and not from the top? 5. Finally, how often should the sand be cleaned or changed? I would much appreciate the answers. Thank you in advance.

Is there somebody in the joburg area that can do a filtration system for me? My borehole water is full of mud

As I said this process may not work for all types of water, it is advisable to have your water tested before proceeding with the process. Get yourself a 200 ml beacker or some clear glass and fill it with 200 ml of your raw water and then put in half teaspoon of pool chlorine(HTH), stir about 3 to 5 times and then let it stand overnight don’t worry if all the chlorine doesn’t dissolve. The next morning you should see a clear layer on top, decant about a hundred ml of the clear layer into a small bottle and have this tested for iron and manganese. Now from those results you can decide if it’s worth your while to take this route. If you had at the start 15 milligrams of iron, and the iron comes down to about one or less milligrams per litre, then it might be worth your while to do this process. Although by having 1 mg/L is still not recommended, seeing that the water drinking standard suggest that you should have less than 0 .3 mg/L, but then you can run this water through filters in order to remove the rest of the iron. By doing it this way you will save on your filters and you won’t have to replace them that often. When I started this process back in February 2017 I only wanted to treat my groundwater for the pool, but now I am thinking to use this water in the toilets and showers but I don’t like the idea that there could be still some chlorine in the water, especially in the shower. So I have decided to stop the chlorine process and use some other treatment process. The thing what I like about the chlorine process was that I could actually leave the water for even up to 2 weeks if not longer, and not worry about bacteria or algae forming, which could give rise to some dangerous pathogens. TREATING WATER IS A HARD PROCESS.It requires time, regular monetary, testing and cleaning of your equipment.

Jose da Silva I insist strongly that the sample water should not be treated or chlorinated in any way before sending to the laboratory for testing! Raw sample will reveal accurately what's in the water. Then the owner can determine what treatment is needed. The water treatment industry is full of overcharging thieves and misinformed plumbers who give advice out of ignorance. There are many videos explaining when to use ozone, or hydrogen peroxide, or plain air (as in your water spray technique) to oxidize iron. Of COURSE when it's oxidized, a filter has to catch the iron particles unless they're at the bottom of a tall tank as you describe--remember that some people don't want a settling tank but rather, continuous flow which requires a filter. In all these techniques, one has to set peroxide or ozone to safe levels for drinking, which are easily looked up. People are even using ozone generators to keep tropical fish aquariums clear without hurting the fish! Ozone should be generated by the corona discharge method, not ultraviolet lights that have very short lives!

He sets the sprayer to spray, to oxidise, which is what I think you are referring to. Doing injection oxidization is likely not as easy as chlorine dosing with a Chlorman or something like that. Also, chlorine is technically an oxidizing agent.

so complicated bruh .large space needed..

Impossible for the water ph to rise from PH6.38 raw to ph7.79 and then ph8.34 while using chlorine tablets (trichloro-s-triazinetrione) chlorine tablets has got a ph of 3 so it will lower the ph on water and not raise the ph... aeration tends to raise ph of water but you also do not have enough aeration with the little sprayer connected to your system right at the beginning of your filtering process. You want us to bellieve that you raised the water's ph by a ph of 2 with aeration, chlorine tabs and some little filtering.... With the ph calculations ruled out, it is impossible for me to believe the iron and manganese figures mg/l.

But sir. Your design is too complicated why you dont use 2 FRP tank and 1 Dosing Pump which can be installed in 3 meter spaces at compact design. If your design is improvise it is okay. But for selling or sharing with others will be look lousy and not looking nice. But Thanks for sharing Sir.
