If your well water has suddenly turned brown, it’s a good idea to use a home water test kit to get a better sense of what’s going on with your water. Consider calling a professional for an expert opinion before drinking the water and hoping for the best.

“Testing” can start with your senses: Assessing your water’s appearance, taste, and smell can all be good first steps.

Have a pro test your well water at least once per year.
