Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some unwelcome attributes of a house's water are hard to miss.

Residents of Fort Atkinson can notice reddish discoloration on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – points to elevated iron content. A nose-turning odor, like rotten eggs, points to beyond-acceptable sulfur content.

A single filter can address both … and deliver immediate relief from these bothersome symptoms.

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

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

Adding a filter implements an instant difference in home water conditions. Water smells better. It doesn’t stain. Many Fort Atkinson homeowners think, “Why didn’t we do this earlier?”

Are you prepared? If you want a new or replacement iron/sulfur water filter in Fort Atkinson contact Kelly James Service. Its plumbing professionals are experts at analyzing water issues, and offering solutions to ensure the absolute best water quality.

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

A Fort Atkinson home’s water can shift over time. Drilling a new well, for example, might utilize an underground water vein with different properties. If stains or smells appear later, a filter might be recommended.

Kelly James Service can assess your water and advise on steps to improve it. We all need water – why not make it the best it can possibly be?
