Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some uninvited elements of a home’s water are difficult to pass by.

Homeowners of Washington County can notice reddish staining on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – signifies high iron level. A nose-turning odor, like rotten eggs, points to elevated sulfur level.

One filter can solve both … and deliver instant respite from these bothersome symptoms.

This filter system, commonly labeled an iron water filter or sulfur filter for well water, is added into a home’s plumbing between the pressure tank and water softener. Its processes make water far more inviting, and much less detrimental.

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

Adding a filter makes an instant transformation in home water quality. Water smells far more appealing. It won’t leave blemishes. Many Washington County residents ask, “Why didn’t we do this earlier?”

A Washington County home’s water can morph over time. Drilling a new well, for example, might draw from an underground water source with different properties. If stains or smells show up afterward, a filter might be recommended.
