Red / Orange stains may be caused by Iron in the water.
Iron is found in natural deposits and can cause many problems for anyone using water that has a high content of it.
Iron may cause ugly stains that are difficult to remove.

Grey stains indicate a very high Total Dissolved Solids count or possibly a high concentration of Aluminum.
The Total Dissolved Solids can be anything the water has dissolved into itself.
The Aluminum can come from a natural deposit or Alum coagulation treatment of the water.

Dark Brown / Black stains indicate the presence of Manganese in your water.
Manganese is picked up by the water from natural deposits. The longer the situation is left unchecked, the worse the stains get untill they are almost impossible to get off.

Reddish to Brown stains may be caused by Iron and or Tannins in the water.
Iron is found in natural deposits and can cause many problems for anyone using water that has a high content of it.
Tannins are produced by decaying organic matter and cause a dark color in the water making it look like tea.
Both of these cause ugly stains that are difficult to remove.

Blue / Green stains indicate the presence of Copper in the water.
Water picks up Copper from natural deposits, industrial processes, wood preservatives, and plumbing.
A potential health effect from injesting water with excess Copper is gastrointestinal irritation.

If your water leaves spots on your clothes you have Hard Water.
Hard Water is caused when the water dissolves limestone and magnesium salts from deposits in the earths surface.
Hard Water consumes soap and makes cleaning more difficult, Leaves a soap scum residue, and whitish scale deposits.

If your water leaves whitish scale deposits you have Hard Water and possibly a very high Total Dissolved Solids count.
Hard Water is caused when the water dissolves limestone and magnesium salts from deposits in the earths surface.
Hard Water consumes soap and makes cleaning more difficult, Leaves a soap scum residue, and whitish scale deposits.
The Total Dissolved Solids count in your water can be the result of the water picking up lots of contaminants from underground deposits such as hardness minerals or due to the intrusion of brackish water on the water supply.

If your water leaves soap scum deposits and bathtub rings you have hard water.
Hard water is caused when the water dissolves limestone and magnesium salts from deposits in the earths surface.
Hard water consumes soap and makes cleaning more difficult, Leaves a soap scum residue, and whitish scale deposits.

If your water has a sour taste there may be a problem with the pH of your water.
The normal pH range for drinking water is from 6.5 to 8.5.
The pH can be effected by the natural balance of acid and alkalinity in the water or by the presence of high levels of Carbon Dioxide. This type of water can also be highly corrosive.

If your water has a metallic taste it may be contaminated with Aluminum, Copper, Iron, Manganese, Zinc, or Corrosivity.
All the metals can be found in natural deposits in the earth and can also leech into your water from the plumbing.
Corrosivity can be the result of Very Low or Very High Total Dissolved Solids in the water, Low pH. Dissolved gases such as Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, and Hydrogen Sulfide may also be the culprit.
