Iron In Minnesota Water – Health Effects & What You Need To Know

Iron in Minnesota water is not uncommon. If there is too much in yours, you should get in touch with Aquarius Water Conditioning as soon as possible. When rain breaks down soil, the iron in that soil dissolves, seeping into the aquifers that serve as the source of the water that eventually makes its way into your home. If you have excessive iron in your home’s water, you need to know more about the possible health effects. We have a wide range of products that can address this issue and make your water clean and fresh.

Important Information About Iron

Iron In Minnesota Water - Health Effects & What You Need To KnowIt’s imperative to understand that iron – in the proper amount – is good for you. It helps ensure that oxygen flows freely through your bloodstream. But, like everything else, too much iron isn’t a good thing. It can lead to a wide range of potentially severe health problems.

Too much iron in your water can be a huge hassle as well. It can give your water an awful metallic taste. When used to make beverages such as coffee and tea, they can be impossible to drink since they taste so bad. If you cook vegetables in water with too much iron, it can make them turn dark and look like they’re spoiled. 

Even relatively low concentrations of iron in your home’s water can turn your fixtures – and even your laundry – an ugly, reddish-brown color that could be almost impossible to remove. Excess iron can even make your water turn the same color.

But too much iron can also cause plumbing issues. It can combine with bacteria to create a yellow or brown slime that will clog your pipes and produce a noxious odor.

I tell my family and friends on and off the air, that I trust Aquarius. They installed my new cooling and heating system, a much-loved tankless water heater and have taken care of my water concerns for years. They are great at what they do and I am so proud to recommend them.
