Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some unappreciated traits of a house's water are difficult to ignore.

Residents of Cambridge can notice reddish staining on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – points to high iron content. A nasty smell, like rotten eggs, indicates elevated sulfur content.

One filter can address both … and offer instant respite from these annoying symptoms.

This filter system, usually termed an iron water filter or sulfur filter for well water, goes into a home’s plumbing between the pressure tank and water softener. Its operations make water far more inviting, and much less detrimental.

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

Adding a filter makes an immediate transformation in home water properties. Water smells far more appealing. It doesn’t leave blemishes. Many Cambridge homeowners ask, “Why didn’t we do this earlier?”

Are you ready? If you desire a new or replacement iron/sulfur water filter in Cambridge contact Kelly James Service. Its plumbing practitioners are specialists at figuring out water issues, and delivering solutions to ensure the absolute best water quality.

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

A Cambridge home’s water can shift over time. Drilling a new well, for example, might draw from an underground water vein with different properties. If stains or smells appear afterward, a filter might be in order.
