What to Do When Your Water Has High Iron Levels

May 29, 2020 by Brad Reynolds

The balance of minerals in your home’s water is important. In addition to making your water taste off, having levels that are too high can make your home’s water less-pleasant for bathing, and can even cause problems for your pipes and fixtures. One common problem with residential water is excessive iron levels, but finding the right solution can be a challenge with so many options on the market. Here is what you need to know about high iron water treatment methods.


Water Softeners

Because many homeowners associate high iron with hard water, one treatment that is often used is the application of a water softening system. While this can have an effect on the levels in your water, it is not the ideal solution for high iron water treatment, and often does not provide sufficient treatment to fully address the problem.


Reverse Osmosis

A reverse osmosis water treatment is one of the most advanced and thorough options available for residential use. A reverse osmosis system can actually have an opposite problem to a water softener for owners who are only concerned with their iron levels, as the process can have the effect of excessively removing other minerals in the water, as well.


Dedicated Iron Removal Systems

The Goldilocks solution for removing iron from your home’s water supply is a dedicated iron removal system. When in use, it solidifies iron in the water, allowing it to then be filtered out and prevented from entering your pipes. The system is then set up to automatically purge the iron left behind weekly in order to allow for constant function throughout the year.


If you’re dealing with high iron levels in your home’s water and are ready to fix it, get in touch with a water purification specialist today. They can assess your water and help you find the best solution to your water woes.
