Send a simple solution straight to the source.

The Land-O-Matic 3000 dry pellet chlorinator treats problem water right in the well.

The Land-O-Matic LP-3000 dry pellet chlorinator delivers automatic, economical, pump-to-faucet protection for home and farm well water systems.

From clogged pumps and stained fixtures, to odors, slime and disease-carrying bacteria, most water problems originate in the well. So it just makes good sense to treat these problems at their source . . . right in the well itself.

The Land-O-Matic chlorinator, with its unique dry pellet chlorination, is the most reliable and economical system available today for the automatic chlorination of well water. In the home, the Land-O-Matic chlorinator eliminates nuisance bacteria from potable water. On the farm, it helps prevent the spread of waterborne disease among livestock and poultry. And the Land-O-Matic chlorinator does away with many other unpleasant side effects of untreated well water.

The Land-O-Matic dry pellet chlorinator provides both farm and home with healthier, better-tasting water right from the well.

The Land-O-Matic chlorinator easily eliminates:

  • Iron bacteria and bacteria-clogged pumps and pipes
  • Stained appliances and plumbing fixtures
  • Bad taste and rotten egg odors
  • Nuisance bacteria
  • Hydrogen sulfide
  • Slime buildup
  • Black water
  • Algae

Livestock and poultry thrive with Land-O-Matic chlorination which helps guard against the spread of disease through watering troughs and water cups. The Land-O-Matic chlorinator helps lower scours incidence and mortality rates, and encourages animals to drink more of the better-tasting, better-smelling water, which often leads to improved feed conversion and weight gain.

Taste-free, odor-free water is enjoyed daily in the home, thanks to the Land-O-Matic chlorinator's bacteria-destroying action that prevents the creation of hydrogen sulfide gas and its rotten egg smell.

Household appliances, sinks and plumbing fixtures sparkle as the Land-O-Matic chlorinator, in combination with an optional filter system, eliminates unsightly stains caused by iron or manganese. Land-O-Matic chlorination reduces the iron content of the water system by oxidizing existing iron and manganese for easy removal by filtration.

Clear, clog-free pumps and piping operate at top efficiency with less energy and maintenance . . . the result of the Land-O-Matic chlorinator constant destruction of iron bacteria and its damaging buildup.

Using the well casing as the retention tank keeps chlorine in contact with the well water as long as possible for maximum effect.

Simple in its design for trouble-free performance, the modular Land-O-Matic chlorinator is easy to install and service, if necessary. Completely weather-proof right down to the clutch, the Land-O-Matic chlorinator has a rugged thermoplastic housing that resists corrosion and ultraviolet rays, for reliable, uninterrupted operation in every season.

Highly concentrated, EPA-registered dry chlorine pellets load safely and conveniently into the Land-O-Matic chlorinator from easy-to-store containers. An extra-large, airtight chlorine storage bin holds an ample supply of pellets to ensure long intervals between refills.

Automatically controlled by a flow switch or pump control, the Land-O-Matic chlorinator begins feeding dry chlorine pellets directly into the well casing when the pump motor starts. A power light signals "ON" when the chlorinator is operating.

The automatic reversing clutch is designed to prevent pellets from jamming in the chlorinator.

User-adjustable slots in the pellet plate automatically pick up and feed chlorine pellets at a wide range of rates to deliver the exact amount of chlorination required.

The child- and vandal-resistant cover features a lockable hasp arrangement.

In safety, convenience and performance, the Land-O-Matic dry pellet chlorinator offers many distinct advantages over liquid chlorination systems:

  • Reduced chlorine fumes.
  • There's no chlorine spillage.
  • There's no chemical loss through evaporation.
  • Freezing weather won't affect the pellets.
  • The pellets drop down throughout the well for consistent chlorine dispersal.
  • Highly concentrated, the pellets maintain their chlorination power, so a small quantity lasts a long time.
  • There's no tedious, time-consuming mixing of new chlorine solutions every two or three weeks.
  • In most cases, there's no need for costly, space-consuming retention tanks.
