Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some uninvited elements of a home’s water are nearly impossible to overlook.

Homeowners of North Shore can notice reddish blemishes on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – suggests high iron content. A putrid smell, like rotten eggs, signifies high sulfur content.

One filter can address both … and provide immediate relief from these annoying symptoms.

This filter system, commonly named an iron water filter or sulfur filter for well water, gets installed into a home’s plumbing between the pressure tank and water softener. Its processes make water far more appealing, and much less problematic.

The iron filter system involves 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 moves into the water softener.

Adding a filter makes an immediate change in home water conditions. Water smells far more appealing. It doesn’t leave blemishes. Many North Shore homeowners ask, “Why didn’t we do this sooner?”

A North Shore 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 appear later, a filter might be advisable.
