If you’re finding reddish-brown stains in your toilets, showers, bathtubs, or sinks — and no amount of scrubbing keeps them away — iron and dissolved metals in your water are the cause. It’s one of the most common water quality issues we see across Western Pennsylvania and Eastern Ohio, especially in homes on well water.
The staining isn’t just cosmetic. High iron levels can affect the taste of your drinking water, leave residue on laundry, and build up inside your pipes and water heater over time.
Iron occurs naturally in the rock and soil that surrounds your well. As groundwater moves through these formations, it picks up dissolved iron and other metals like manganese. The concentration varies by location — which is why your neighbor might have clear water while yours is staining everything in sight.
Common signs of iron and metal contamination include:
After we test your water and confirm the type and concentration of iron and metals present, we typically install our Chatfield Water Systems FerronX Iron System. The FerronX is engineered specifically for the iron levels common in our region’s groundwater.
The FerronX treats your water at the point of entry — before it reaches any fixture in your home. That means every faucet, shower, toilet, and appliance gets clean, iron-free water.
1. Test Your Water — We test on-site or send samples to a certified lab to identify the exact type and level of iron and other metals.
2. Assess Your Space — We evaluate your basement, crawl space, or utility room to plan the installation.
3. Review Results & Quote — Based on your water test and space assessment, we recommend the right FerronX configuration and provide a clear quote.
4. Install — In most cases, we have the FerronX system stocked on our service vehicle and can install the same day.

Cleaning products only mask the problem temporarily. The stains keep coming back because the iron is in your water supply. The FerronX Iron System eliminates iron before it ever reaches your fixtures — so the staining stops for good.

I had the pleasure of having Sam and Hunter for the installation of my new water softener, and I couldn’t be more impressed! They were professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly patient. The system is working great, and I can already notice a difference in the water quality. Highly recommend!
We chose Chatfield drilling for our collapsed well, and we're glad we did! Matt & his team arrived quickly to assess the situation. This company is very professional, and provides excellent service with affordable pricing. We are beyond pleased, and have fantastic water!
Chatfield Drilling replaced a submersible pump, extended our well casing above ground, and installed a sanitary cap at our farm house. Both Matt and Sam were happy to answer all of our questions. Amazing to deal with, thank you!
