Well water

Iron Staining

Dissolved iron is common in Minnesota well water. It is invisible coming out of the well, then oxidizes on contact with air and leaves orange-brown stains on sinks, tubs, toilets and laundry.

Quick answer

How Do You Remove Iron from Well Water?

Air-oxidation (AIO) treatment converts dissolved iron into solid particles inside the tank, and Katalox Light media captures them. Heavier iron loads get hydrogen peroxide injection ahead of filtration. A softener alone is not the right tool for real iron. MSP Pure Water installs the Dual Tank Well Water Whole Home Filtration System for $4,499 in the Twin Cities and Greater Minnesota, with a reverse osmosis drinking-water system included.
