Why spend $$$ on a tank if I can make this one work? Especially if these tanks have a reputation of blowing air cells?
You got 7 years out of your first air cell.
However I am eager to hear how the experiment works.

I didn't hear any burping of air when a ran the tank down but i'm sure that will change as it runs more. I'll update this in a few weeks to let you all know how it's working.
Nice Pictures, Thanks for your post.
Looks like a piece of Junk to me.
Un Believable they sell that crap.
In the absence of an AVC the air will eventually burp forward and accumulate at the top of the iron filter media tank. Usually the backwash will purge the air before any of it burps forward into the house plumbing.
That bladder is a huge p.o.s. Not durable at all as you can see. It has a somewhat rigid property. Not soft and flexible like you would imagine.
I've never tested the water after the iron removal tank but I can tell you the input pipes to the softener installed right after the iron removal tank are pristine. If you look at the input to the iron remover it's full of iron. If it's not removing 100% of the iron it's definitely removing 99%.I am glad to hear it is successful for you. Do you know how much iron remains after this system?
I'm looking to "build a better mouse trap" using my existing tank.
This is awkward, but...
