Iron Speciation Water Test

Iron speciation testing to determine the oxidative state of iron in a drinking water sample. Knowing the form of iron in water can help you choose effective filtration or treatment solutions.

Testing is as easy as one, two, three:

1. We send you the water testing bottles.

2. You fill them using easy instructions and ship them to the lab with the pre-paid label.

3. We email you easy to understand results directly from Dr. Spayd with an explanation of any problems detected.

Ferrous iron (soluble iron) dissolves in water, while ferric iron (insoluble iron) precipitates. Water with mostly ferrous iron may appear clear, while ferric iron makes water appear reddish/brown/orange. In the presence of oxygen, chlorine or other oxidizing agents, ferrous iron will convert to ferric iron–which can then lead to staining on fixtures, tubs and other appliances.

This water test package provides the required materials to properly collect and submit a sample for certified laboratory testing. Reported results will include detailed, quantified analysis of ferrous and ferric iron concentrations.
