American Hydro Systems helps irrigation and landscape professionals solve common well water challenges, including rust stains, scale buildup and inconsistent lawn performance. The product line gives contractors a complete way to clean existing stains, prevent future damage and add value through fertilization and pest control.

Rust Is a Visible Problem with Hidden Costs

Iron in well water can leave rust stains on concrete, siding, fencing, sidewalks and driveways. It can also create problems inside the irrigation system by clogging sprinkler heads, coating valves and increasing maintenance issues.

Hard water can create similar problems. Calcium and scale buildup can restrict lines, affect water coverage and put stress on pumps and components.

For customers, these issues are frustrating and highly visible. For contractors, they create an opportunity to solve the problem and provide ongoing service.

1.  Clean Existing Rust Stains

Rid-O-Rust® Stain Remover helps remove existing rust and mineral stains from porous and non-porous surfaces, including driveways, sidewalks, siding, PVC fencing and stucco.

Available as a ready-to-use liquid or powder concentrate, it gives contractors a fast way to restore curb appeal without scrubbing or high-pressure washing.

2.  Prevent Stains Before They Return

Once the property is clean, Rid-O-Rust® Preventers help stop stains from coming back by treating the water before it reaches the lawn, landscape or hardscape.

The lineup includes three formulas:

• RR1 for alkaline water with pH of 6.0 and above.
• RR2 for acidic water below 6.0 pH.
• RRC for properties that need both rust and calcium scale prevention.

These formulas help protect surfaces, reduce service issues and support longer irrigation system life.

3. Feeder Systems:  Deliver the Solution Automatically

American Hydro Systems feeder systems apply treatment through the irrigation system.

• The Siphoning Feeder System is designed for centrifugal, above-ground pumps. It requires no electricity and runs whenever the pump runs.
• The Injection Feeder System is designed for submersible wells, larger properties and commercial systems that require more precise feed control.

Both options help contractors provide a reliable, professional treatment program with minimal customer effort.

4. Test the Water First

The right formula and dosage start with a water test. Contractors should measure iron, hardness and pH before recommending a solution.

American Hydro Systems offers on-site test kits for fast field results, along with mail-in testing for more complex water profiles. Contractors can also use the online dosage calculator to match the product and dosage to the property.

Testing helps eliminate guesswork and supports a more professional recommendation.

5. Add Fertilization and Pest Control

Beyond rust and scale prevention, American Hydro Systems also offers products that can help contractors expand their service offering.

• GrassSoGreen® 19-0-0 supports consistent lawn greening through the irrigation system.
• NatureShield® helps repel mosquitoes, fleas, fire ants and no-see-ums using a natural oil-based formula.

These products can be applied through American Hydro Systems feeders, making it easier to offer a broader landscape care program.

Build Recurring Revenue

For contractors, American Hydro Systems creates more than a one-time sale. Feeder refills, seasonal service, water testing and ongoing treatment plans create repeat touchpoints with customers.

Rust stains are easy to spot, making them a strong lead-generation opportunity. Existing irrigation customers are also natural candidates for prevention, fertilization and pest control services.

By adding American Hydro Systems to their offering, contractors can help customers protect their property, improve curb appeal and maintain healthier outdoor spaces while creating a steady source of recurring revenue.
