lEARN mORE ABOUT Ferrous IRON
Why is Ferrous Iron an Issue When Found in Water?
When present in drinking water, ferrous iron poses many concerns that affect the water’s quality and usability.
What is Ferrous iron?
Ferrous iron is a soluble form of iron in water, appearing clear until it encounters oxygen, which oxidizes it into ferric iron.
This transformation can lead to discoloration and the formation of rust-like sediment as the iron precipitates out of the water.
How Does Ferrous Iron affect water?
Ferrous iron impacts water quality by contributing to discoloration and cloudiness as it oxidizes into ferric iron upon exposure to oxygen.
This can result in reddish-brown stains that affect the appearance and taste of water, leading to increased maintenance for plumbing and fixtures due to sediment buildup.
How does Ferrous iron affect your health?
While ferrous iron itself is not considered a direct health hazard, its presence in water can promote iron bacteria growth, producing slime and unpleasant odors, further deteriorating water quality.
Maintaining aesthetic and operational water quality standards necessitates addressing ferrous iron effectively to ensure the water is clean, clear, and desirable for consumption and daily use.
