- Contaminants including copper, iron, manganese, and zinc. This is often caused by aging pipes close to the end of their lifecycle. Pipes typically last 80-100 years, so if your pipes are around that age you may need to install new pipes in your home.
- Seepage or corrosion into your water source. If your home uses well water, there's a chance a metallic taste is a sign that contaminants got into your water supply, either from runoff or deterioration in the pipes leading to and from your well.
- Low pH levels in your water. This is also sometimes referred to as "soft water" and can be tested using a pH level test kit available at almost any convenience store.
