Why does the water in your washing machine turn orange when you add bleach to it?
It sounds like you have a well with hard water. Your water may have high iron content. Water softeners usually help this. You can have your water tested for free at many county offices.
How do you clean out iron from a well?
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.

Everything that is in the ground can be in your well water. Iron is the world's most common mineral and is present in most well water.
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.

How do I properly clean a reversible griddle?
There are a couple of options that work well. You can try soaking it in hot water to help with hard to remove food. If it is dark cast iron, you can also try to gently scrub it with a steel pad. I have also heard of placing it in the oven on self clean to help.

How much iron is in water?
Pure (or distilled) water does not contain iron. If the water has travelled through an iron pipe, it will dissolve some iron. Well water or water from many other sources contains some iron because the soil contains some iron compounds, which can dissolve. Sea water contains iron. But the actual amount varies quite a bit.
