Why is an anti scaling device important in a steam iron?

Most ordinary tap water contains dissolved minerals. When the water evaporates, or is boiled away to produce steam as in a steam iron, these dissolved minerals remain. Eventually, in a iron, they will accumulate to clog up the channels and water reservoir in the iron rendering it useless. Hence the necessity of an anti-scaling device or means of removing them.

It's not really that the water changes color itself, as water is always a colorless liquid. It is whatever is dissolved in the water that makes it change color. For example, if you are in an area where there is a high iron content in the soil, then the water will take on an orangey-red color because of the dissolved iron.
