How do I get iron out of my water?
Iron water filter systems use similar technology as a water softener, meaning there is a media-bed that attracts and filters out iron from the water source before it is distributed throughout the home or facility. For more extreme levels of Iron presence, some even prefer to combine the use of an iron water filter system and a water softener.
Why worry about iron anyway?
Iron can be found in most tap water from groundwater sources. Tap water can even source up to 5% of a person’s daily iron intake. In smaller amounts iron is harmless and even has beneficial effects in the cardiovascular system. However, if there is an overabundance of iron in the water supply to your home, the water may cause staining, clogging, a metallic taste, and in some cases, even health risks.
