​How Does The Nitrate Eater Remove Nitrates?
The Nitrate Eater uses specific resins to filter out and remove nitrates. In the ion exchange process nitrate ions are exchanged by chloride (much like a standard water softener that exchanges hard water ions for chloride). When all chloride ions are exchanged with nitrate ions the resin is exhausted. Resin is regenerated with sodium chloride solution (standard water softener salt). 

Our Nitrate Eater systems are considered a point of entry (POE) nitrate filter, also known as a whole house nitrate filter and is installed at the main-line of your plumbing where water enters your house or business. This type of filter removes nitrates in your kitchen and at other taps throughout your house should you want it; such as your bathroom, all sinks or utility room. 

Does The Nitrate Eater Also Soften Hard Water? 
Hard water scale can greatly reduce the lifespan, effectiveness and removal capacity of all nitrate resins. To prevent premature fouling from hard water minerals our Nitrate Eaters offer both hard water softening and nitrate removal all in one system. If you already have a water softener we offer our "Nitrate Only" Nitrate Eater which is installed after your existing water softener.  

Why Do I Need A Nitrate Filter? 
High concentration of nitrate in water is a potential hazard for two reasons.

1) The nitrate ions form complexes with the blood and in the long run cause oxygen depletion affecting human & livestock life.
2) The flow of nitrate bearing water through iron pipes can cause depletion of oxygen leading to corrosion.
In view of these difficulties use of an Ion Exchange resin is the preferred process for nitrate removal.
​
Basically, if you have high nitrates and need your water to be of a higher quality than your private well water supply, then the Nitrate Eater nitrate filter may work for you.  As there are many different well water filters to choose from, it is worth having your water analyzed. Before you purchase any nitrate filter for your well we recommend that you obtain a water quality test report for your well water supply, which will help identify any issues that are essential to deal with and those you may wish to improve. If you have a water report please email us at Support@RainDanceH2OStore.com  Attn: Whole House Nitrate Filter - Or contact us about our FREE well water testing.
