Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some uninvited elements of a house's water are hard to overlook.

Residents of Wauwatosa can notice reddish discoloration on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – indicates high iron level. A putrid aroma, like rotten eggs, indicates elevated sulfur content.

One filter can solve both … and offer immediate respite from these annoying symptoms.

This filter system, commonly called an iron water filter or sulfur filter for well water, is installed 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 involves two fiberglass tanks. The first tank oxygenates water to divide out impurities; the second uses minerals to remove the impurities. Once finished, the treated water transfers into the water softener.

Adding a filter makes an instant change in home water properties. Water smells better. It won’t leave blemishes. Many Wauwatosa homeowners ask, “Why didn’t we do this before?”

Are you prepared? If you desire a new or replacement iron/sulfur water filter in Wauwatosa contact Kelly James Service. Its plumbing practitioners are masters 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 remove iron from the tanks. Correctly maintained, an iron filter or filter for sulfur water smell can work more than two decades.

A Wauwatosa home’s water can change 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 recommended.

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