Sentry I Open Air · G130

Gas Reduction System (G130)

A compact open-air aeration unit designed to treat sulfur odor, iron, and methane in residential well-water applications.

Overview

The Sentry I G130 Series Open-Air Gas Reduction System

The G130 Series • Gas Reduction • 10 GPM • Open-Air System

The Sentry I Open-Air System combines aeration with chlorination to provide superior water quality. The Sentry I Open-Air System adds air to the water with an adjustable venturi as it enters the tank through a solenoid valve that is controlled with an electronic float inside the tank. This air starts the oxidation process and dilutes any gasses in the water such as Methane.

While the unit fills, the chlorinator dispenses the exact amount of chlorine desired. The chlorine sanitizes the water and finishes the oxidation process getting rid of odors and killing bacteria. The water first flows into the bottom of the first chamber and then flows over into the second chamber where the submersible pump pressurizes the water to the home.

This system has three floats, one mechanical safety overflow, one electrical low-level shutdown, and one electrical water level maintaining float. The system is complete with the chlorinator, by-pass, bladder tank, pump, and is pre-wired for an easy install.

"This system is often described as a personal municipality for the home — providing 24/7 protection."

Common applications

Where this system is commonly used

See all water problems

Odor

Sulfur odor

Commonly used to help reduce hydrogen-sulfide (rotten-egg) odor in well water.

Staining

Iron staining

Treats dissolved iron by oxidation ahead of a filtration stage.

Problem gas

Methane

The Gas Reduction System is the recommended approach for venting methane from well water. (For radon, the Air Stripping Package is used instead.)

System fit

How it fits into a treatment system

The G130 is typically installed ahead of filtration, where aeration supports oxidation so downstream filters can capture oxidized iron and other constituents.

For higher demand or low-yield wells, dealers often pair open-air aeration with appropriately sized storage and pressure equipment for steady delivery.
