These are the results from my home water test kit on my well water,

Iron - 3ppm
Chlorine - 0ppm
PH - between 7 and 8
Alkalinity - 230
Hardness - 90ppm (5 grain)

Can a standard water softener take care of the iron and hardness or will I need some special treatment. These number don't seem high from what I have been reading.

Thanks

Thanks for the info. I was looking at the specs of this water softener I want to buy and it says it can remove a maximum 5ppm of iron. Since mine is at 3ppm now is it worth get a softener or going with one of the more complticated systems. Can the iron gets worse or better or will it always be around this number?

Thanks for the help.
