It depends on the concentration of iron. Anything above 0.3mg/litre should be treated with an iron filter system

You can't remove the iron from your well specifically because the iron leeches into the well from the surrounding soil. What you can do is use a filtration and water softening sytem to help reduce the iron content of the water being used inside the home (cooking, bathing, drinking, etc...). Filtering the water for your garden hose is pointless, however, as all you'll be doing is recycling the iron back into the soil.

Can soft water exist naturally?

Yes. Many homes have their own water well/water pump. It sometimes can depend on the depth of the well, or simply the location of where the water well is drilled. The softness of water can vary from house, even in the same neighborhood. Some drill sites have a lot of iron and rust in the water, while others in the same area have good, clear, soft water. But there are many good water softeners that work extremely well to remove the iron and minerals if you have hard water.


Can an iron leak in well water cause breakage in hair?

There is no such thing as an "iron leak" in well water. Iron is almost always present in varying amounts in well water because there is a lot of iron in the ground.Whether or not it can cause this hair complaint is unknown to me and I would suggest that is a question to be asked of a doctor or a hair specialist.There is no such thing as an "iron leak" in well water.
