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
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.

Air Stripping Package
Air-Stripping is commonly used to reduce hard-to-treat gases like radon and CO2, along with odor reduction from water. This package can be installed on either the G130 or G140.
