Why is your water yellow?

Three common Delhi causes — and the real fix.

Cause 1

Rust from old pipes

Corroding metal pipes and fittings shed rust that tints your water yellow or brown, worst after taps sit unused.

Cause 2

Iron in borewell water

Borewell and hard-water supply often carries dissolved iron that turns yellow as it meets air in your tank.

Cause 3

Sediment stirred by refills

A fresh refill disturbs sludge resting on the tank floor, clouding your water yellow for hours afterward.

Warning

A filter alone won’t fix it

A purifier only treats what leaves the tap. If the tank stays dirty, the colour keeps coming back.

The fix

A proper tank clean

Draining, scrubbing out the sediment and disinfecting the tank clears the colour at its source — not just the symptom.
