Water Iron levels

Just The One · 2007-11-21 12:48:36

I got the council to test my water and they told me that all checks were fine except for the Iron levels. The max amount allowed is 200 micrograms of iron per litre the reading from my water is 5 times that. 1008 micrograms of Iron per litre. I have been told that there is no health risk to it. what does it mean though?
