A metallic taste in the water usually points to pipes or minerals. Here is the Pearland guide.
The copper cause
A metallic taste can come from copper leaching, especially with acidic water.
The iron cause
Iron in the water also tastes metallic and leaves stains.
The test
A water test identifies the mineral or metal responsible.
The fix
A filter or a neutralizer depends on the result. Call 888-217-3585 and Pearland Plumber Connect will match you with a Pearland pro.
