Excessive iron issues in your water is typically characterized by the ugly red or brown colored staining in your plumbing fixtures, sinks, toilets and laundry.

With well water, iron typically occurs in a ferrous state. That means, the flowing water typically looks clear. However, once the water is exposed to the air, the iron transforms into a ferric/ oxidized state. The clear water will turn red or brown and insoluble “rust” type material will form.

Iron staining can be easily caused by as low as only 0.3 milligrams per liter (mg/L).

Depending on the iron content concentration, we have several solutions to this ugly and aggravating water problem.

A quality iron filter will filter out this excessive iron content.
