Is Iron in Your Drinking Water?

Both Minnesota and Wisconsin have iron-rich soil and sediments. Iron in soil and rocks seeps into water supplies over time. Iron can also get into a water supply from the corrosion of steel or iron pipes. The best way to know for sure if you have iron in your water is to get your free water score.

Is Iron in Water Safe to Drink?

Typically, small amounts of iron in your water do not pose any serious health risks. Iron is an essential nutrient that our bodies need to support healthy red blood cells. 

Iron only becomes an issue when your water contains high concentrations of this mineral, causing harmful bacteria to grow in your home’s water supply.

4 Signs of Iron in Water

Metallic Taste

Iron in water can significantly affect its flavor and scent, giving it a strong metallic taste. This can also affect the taste of foods and beverages prepared using water.

Rusty Color

The color of your drinking and tap water may change to yellow, orange or red. This creates yellow, red, or brown stains on dishes, laundry, and other household appliances, too.

Damage to Appliances

When iron accumulates in your water supply, it can clog water-using appliances, including washing machines, dishwashers, and water softeners, leaving your machinges less effective and efficient.

Presence of Bacteria

Some bacteria require the presence of iron to survive. Excess iron can cause bacteria growth and even form a sticky biofilm, making it more difficult to treat any bacteria problems you may have.

I had purchased a drinking water system and water softener from Aquarius 8 years ago. I've had zero problems with it. I got a call from service tech Noah a month ago and he explained the maintenance I needed on the system and I scheduled that for today 8/18/2025.

First, I'm certain the maintenance this system would need in the future was all explained to me 8 years ago, which I wouldn't remember. I appreciate the call to remind and explain. Noah was very thorough in his evaluation, in his explanations, and the overall service he provided.

Second, he was courteous, patient, and just an overall excellent technician in doing his job. I find many service providers over the 8 years I have lived here, to fall short in something: service, quality of materials, cleanup, etc. Not Noah. I haven't been this happy with ANY service provider I have had in a LONG time! Thanks Noah! You are welcome here any time.
