Manganese greensand and Mang Ox media

The greensand filter media oxidizes dissolved iron and manganese on contact as the water flows through the greensand filter which causes these elements to precipitate (or form solids) in the bed of the filter The iron filter backwashes these small particles to drain every few days in the middle of the night (or some other preset time) thereby cleaning and restoring the filter media.
