Shady Cove's private-well universe sits in Western Cascades volcanic geology with classic reducing-aquifer chemistry — iron, manganese, and hydrogen sulfide co-occurring at variable concentrations (Oregon OHA — Iron and Manganese in Groundwater).
Treatment design is well-by-well. For low-to-moderate iron (under 3 mg/L) without manganese, air-injection oxidation handles it. For higher iron or any measurable manganese, the standard answer is manganese greensand or Katalox Light with appropriate regeneration — paired with a sediment pre-filter and, where indicated, an H2S oxidation step.
Symptoms we see in Shady Cove
