Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some unappreciated traits of a home’s water are difficult to overlook.

Homeowners of Saint Martins can notice reddish discoloration on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – signifies elevated iron content. A nasty aroma, like rotten eggs, indicates beyond-acceptable sulfur level.

A single filter can address both … and provide immediate respite from these bothersome symptoms.

This filter system, usually 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 problematic.

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

Adding a filter makes an immediate change in home water properties. Water smells better. It won’t leave blemishes. Many Saint Martins residents think, “Why didn’t we do this before?”

Are you ready? If you want a new or replacement iron/sulfur water filter in Saint Martins contact Kelly James Service. Its plumbing practitioners are experts at analyzing water issues, and providing solutions to create the absolute best water quality.

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 work more than two decades.

A Saint Martins home’s water can shift over time. Drilling a new well, for example, might draw from an underground water source with different properties. If stains or smells show up later, a filter might be a smart investment.
