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.

We have used AQUARIUS for several service calls, and Nick continued the excellent service that we’ve come to expect and trust. He inspected our furnace and heat pump, cleaned everything, and made the required repairs and replacements.He took his time, was very thorough, explained everything, and we could tell he knew what he was doing. We will continue to use AQUARIUS and request Nick when possible.

Been experiencing issues with our AC/furnace not working and we had no idea what was causing the issue. Our technician Nicholas exceeded expectations and dug deeper and found out what was actually causing the problem and fixed it that day! (It was a doosy!) He was great at communicating and explaining it in ways I could understand. Super friendly and would recommend him to everyone!

My install team was great, they were worried it would take two days due to the boiler arriving late, but they did it in one and we're very happy. I did subject them to smelling pulled pork and ribs the whole day, so I made sure to give them some, but they honestly deserved it. Explained what they did, how to use the new boiler, and left the place cleaner than it was when they came. Honestly what more do you need?

Service was very good. However, the scheduling desk not so much. When I originally scheduled the checkup, it set it up for the same day (9/19). However, scheduling called and asked that we reschedule for 9/25. I agreed. Then on the morning of 9/25, I was called asking to reschedule AGAIN. I refused. The service person came anyway as scheduled as his last visit of the day.Heating/cooling service scheduling can be improved.

He explained options and costs and was not pushy in any way. He scheduled additional appointments for us so we can have all our options and costs before we make a decision. Highly recommend Aquarius.

Our 75 gallon tank style water heater failed over the weekend. We were able to contact someone from Aquarius Home Services on Saturday and they arranged to have a plumber at our house first thing Monday morning (several other companies we contacted for quotes couldn't get out until mid-week). Josiah arrived at 8am and inspected our water heater and associated plumbing. Josiah was very knowledgeable and provided three water heater solutions, identified two areas in our existing system that no longer met building code, and provided the information necessary to make an informed decision. Based on the information provided, we elected to upgrade to a tankless water heater. Josiah was able to get the necessary parts delivered to our house and six hours after arriving onsite we had hot water. In addition to being a master plumber, Josiah is very knowledgeable, personable, and the workmanship performed on our new system is impeccable.The pricing on the new system was fair and the quote included the new tankless water heater, pulling the permit, installation, removal of the old water heater, and upgrading the exhaust vent and AprilAire water connection to meet code. After the installation was finished Josiah cleaned up the work site and you would never know we had a major plumbing job performed. He gave us a "tour" of the new system, explained how it works and how to maintain it. He also re-lit the pilot lights on the two gas fireplaces and cleaned the outside air intake vents. We are extremely pleased with our new water heater, the price we paid for it, and the installation that Josiah performed. We would not hesitate to recommend Aquarius Home Services and Josiah in particular to anyone in need of a new water heater or any other plumbing needs.

Marcus helped us troubleshoot airflow/temperature consistency issues with a new HVAC system. He was very professional, clearly explained what he was doing and seeing, and gave great advice for how to mitigate our concerns. He was transparent about the cost levels of our options and went above and beyond in providing information. We have had great experiences with Aquarius for HVAC, electric and plumbing, and look forward to working with them in the future.
