Do FerriTabs Effectively Remove Iron from Pool Water?

Absolutely! Our FerriTabs have been proven effective in treating well water pools with high iron content for over three decades. The current formulation is optimized for use with sand and glass media filters, providing reliable iron removal. While they can be used with cartridge filters, note that they tend to clog these filters more quickly, requiring more frequent cleaning—typically every 8 to 12 hours. Our loyal customers often praise their consistent performance! Additionally, FerriTabs are highly effective even in challenging scenarios, such as filling new pools with iron-rich source water. We successfully used them during the construction of the Legendary Escapes project for the “Rockstar” pool, where the water had high iron levels. If they can handle such tough jobs, you can trust FerriTabs to deliver excellent results.

FerriTabs are especially popular in regions where well water contains elevated iron levels. The most active markets include:

  • Michigan
  • Pennsylvania

These states frequently experience water quality challenges that FerriTabs are designed to address effectively.

Product Overview and Ordering Information

Product Description

Ferri-Iron Tabs are specially formulated water treatment tablets designed to combat and eliminate discoloration caused by iron and manganese in swimming pool water. They are compatible with all filter types except diatomaceous earth filters. These innovative, dual-action tablets work by neutralizing charges and promoting flocculation, effectively removing insoluble iron and manganese compounds from the water. Made from non-toxic, water-soluble ingredients, FerriTabs contain no caustic or corrosive chemicals, alum, or any agents that could alter your pool’s pH or chlorine levels.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Efficiently removes iron from pool water, preventing staining and discoloration
  • Helps decolorize and clarify cloudy water
  • Designed as water treatment tablets for swimming pools and sand filters
  • Contains no harmful chemicals that could damage your pool equipment or alter chemical balances

Usage Instructions

Before applying FerriTabs, ensure your pool water’s pH is within the optimal range of 7.2 to 7.6. Adjust chlorine levels as necessary—chlorine does not interfere with the tablets’ effectiveness against iron and manganese. Confirm that your pool filter is functioning properly and is turned on. Place one tablet into the skimmer basket for every 3,000 gallons of water. For larger pools with multiple skimmers, distribute the tablets evenly across all skimmers. To achieve the best results, add the tablets gradually over several hours while keeping the filter running. After treatment, thoroughly backwash the filter within 18-24 hours to remove the neutralized iron particles. For pools with severe iron problems, repeat the treatment and backwashing process after 24-48 hours. To prevent recurrence, add one tablet per 3,000 gallons of water whenever you top up or add fresh water to your pool. Note: FerriTabs do not remove existing iron stains from pool surfaces. For stain removal, pre-treat with an ascorbic acid-based stain remover before using FerriTabs to address iron in the water itself, ensuring comprehensive cleaning and stain prevention.
