Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

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

Residents of Washington County can notice reddish blemishes on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – indicates high iron level. A putrid smell, like rotten eggs, indicates high sulfur content.

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

This filter system, commonly called an iron water filter or sulfur filter for well water, goes 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 shake out impurities; the second uses minerals to remove the impurities. Once done, the treated water goes into the water softener.

Adding a filter implements an instant change in home water quality. Water smells far more appealing. It doesn’t stain. Many Washington County residents wonder, “Why didn’t we do this before?”
