Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some uninvited traits of a home’s water are difficult to overlook.

Homeowners of Washington County can notice reddish blemishes on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – indicates elevated iron content. A bothersome odor, like rotten eggs, indicates high sulfur level.

A single filter can take care of both … and provide instant relief from these bothersome symptoms.

This filter system, regularly labeled an iron water filter or sulfur filter for well water, is installed into a home’s plumbing between the pressure tank and water softener. Its operations make water far more inviting, and much less harmful.

The iron filter system uses two fiberglass tanks. The first tank oxygenates water to separate out impurities; the second employs minerals to eliminate the impurities. Once completed, the treated water moves into the water softener.

Installing a filter implements an instant change in home water properties. Water smells far more appealing. It doesn’t leave blemishes. Many Washington County homeowners think, “Why didn’t we do this sooner?”
