Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some uninvited attributes of a house's water are hard to ignore.

Homeowners of Iron Ridge can notice reddish staining on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – suggests high iron content. A nose-turning smell, like rotten eggs, points to elevated sulfur content.

A single filter can solve both … and provide immediate respite from these unmistakeable symptoms.

This filter system, commonly named 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 detrimental.

The iron filter system uses two fiberglass tanks. The first tank oxygenates water to shake out impurities; the second introduces minerals to eliminate the impurities. Once done, the treated water flows into the water softener.

Installing a filter creates an immediate difference in home water conditions. Water smells far more appealing. It doesn’t leave blemishes. Many Iron Ridge homeowners ask, “Why didn’t we do this before?”

A filter system should be serviced every two to three years to clean out iron from the tanks. Correctly maintained, an iron filter or filter for sulfur water smell can operate more than two decades.

A Iron Ridge home’s water can morph over time. Drilling a new well, for example, might tap an underground water source with different properties. If stains or smells show up afterward, a filter might be in order.
