Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some unappreciated elements of a house's water are hard to overlook.

Residents of Okauchee Lake can notice reddish staining on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – signifies elevated iron content. A bothersome odor, like rotten eggs, indicates elevated sulfur content.

A single filter can solve both … and provide immediate relief from these bothersome symptoms.

This filter system, typically labeled an iron water filter or sulfur filter for well water, fits into a home’s plumbing between the pressure tank and water softener. Its operations make water far more appealing, and much less damaging.

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

Installing a filter creates an immediate change in home water properties. Water smells better. It won’t leave blemishes. Many Okauchee Lake homeowners wonder, “Why didn’t we do this before?”
