Does Iron Out make the toilet water blue?

No, it doesn't make the toilet blue. It just dissolves the tank of impurities that discolor the bowl. In water softeners it cleans the mineral tank so the water going thru will be softened to it's maximum capacity.

No it is clear, has an odder but works real well on well water. So thankful I found it have found nothing better.

It does not. Water stays clear, and since I started using Iron Out, have not had toilet ring problems from iron in the water. Works great.

This is a normal chemical reaction and I also like the blue color. Freshman inorganic chemistry labs had a lot of color tests for unknown products. This blue unknown is most likely::: Ferrous phosphate - Fe3(PO4)2.8H20 .Iron is in most peoples well water and occasionally municipal water and the phosphate is in the product. All those knowing the unknown get an A for the chemistry lab, all others, sorry, repeat the course.

You don't need to have blue water coming out for this to be working. I've used one of these for years and it fertilizes fine with a dilute solution coming out. This puts down more water than if mixed in a bucket, but outside you have to put down more water than inside due to the evaporation and seepage into the surrounding soil. But it is fertilizing just fine. By shaking it, you will get a much less even application than just holding it level.

Not necessarily. Go to http://www.flushmate.com/troubleshoot/q03_trouble_shooting.html and watch the video; it shows you how to diagnose toilet problems.

no. depending on your water softener... determines how much salt it uses. mine is gear driven by water... so every 300 gallons mine regenerates. water softeners don't remove iron... like this air injection sys does. I have noticed a big difference in my water since I bought this system... I would recommend that you get your water tested.... to see if you need an iron removal system

I cannot answer your question.On my bidet I have red for hot and blue for cold and I'm ok with it.If you have them on the contrary maybe you should ship it back or maybe you can try with a permanent marker draw the arrows??

If there are steel supply lines to toilet, it can be a slow fill. Or low water pressure.

Depending on the source of the stains, Iron Out will help -or not. For instance, perspiration and high iron content in the laundry water both leave stains, but only the iron stains precipitated out of the iron-laden water will be effectively removed. Perspiration is a combination of sweat and body oils and won't be effectively removed unless other cleaning agents are added to the mix. Hope this helps.

Yes I can answer that question - because the same thing happened to me. When you are through with your iron be sure to empty the water don't leave it in the iron. Also put water in the iron before turning it on. Both of those situations are described in the handbook.

This one is just bleach, so the water will be clear. There is another one that does make the water blue, if you would prefer that instead.

It says at the bottom of the Sprite HO2-WH High Output Shower Filter description - What Chlorgon Removes:Free Chlorine (CI-)Lead (trace amounts)Combined Chlorine (Sodium Hypochlorite)Hydrogen Sulfide (rotten egg smell!) - unfortunately nothing about iron.

No! We have had 3 clogged toilets on our septic system since we tried this TP out. Will go back to our other brand.

According to page 6 of the WaterBoss Owner's Manual issued 9/2/2009 (WB_Softener_v7.2_Manual), the only type of iron that can be treated with a water softener is Ferrous Iron (sometimes called clear water or dissolved iron). Model 900-IF (Iron Filter $399.00 at Home Depot)-Reduces iron, manganese, hydrogen sulfide, and iron bacteria. The WaterBoss 220 does improve our water quality but does still leave a little rust colored water in our water distiller (we have not a lot of iron but quite a bit of manganese). It also eliminates the sulfur smells.

Have no idea, but blue bonnet chelated iron does not cause constipation like other brands

I think so. I would fill the washing machine with water and stop it when full. Then pour in some iron out and let it sit for awhile then put on the rinse cycle to wash it out. We have a well and my husband had socks with rust stains and the rust stains came out. Do not do darks it's like bleach on your clothes. Be sure to fill washing machine first and put in iron out in then white clothes. I put in toilet too and let set works great. I'm a big fan of iron out!!!

I don't know. I think it depends on how bad your water is. If you have iron (rust stains), you'll be using the pads more often. We have calcium. I use one pad for toilets and one for sinks. I've gotten at least a half dozen uses from each. When I'm done, I rinse it and let it dry flattened out. Then keep it in a labeled baggie. It's also going to depend on how many toilets you have.
