Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some uninvited qualities of a house's water are difficult to ignore.

Homeowners of Colgate can notice reddish discoloration on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – signifies elevated iron content. A nose-turning aroma, like rotten eggs, indicates high sulfur content.

One filter can take care of both … and offer instant respite from these unmistakeable 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 inviting, and much less harmful.

The iron filter system involves two fiberglass tanks. The first tank oxygenates water to separate out impurities; the second uses minerals to eliminate the impurities. Once completed, the treated water transfers into the water softener.

Adding a filter makes an immediate difference in home water quality. Water smells better. It doesn’t leave blemishes. Many Colgate homeowners think, “Why didn’t we do this before?”

Are you prepared? If you want a new or replacement iron/sulfur water filter in Colgate contact Kelly James Service. Its plumbing practitioners are masters at analyzing water issues, and supplying 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. Properly maintained, an iron filter or filter for sulfur water smell can last more than two decades.

A Colgate home’s water can shift over time. Drilling a new well, for example, might utilize an underground water source with different properties. If stains or smells appear afterward, a filter might be recommended.

Kelly James Service can test your water and advise on steps to make it better. We all require water – why not make it as good as it can possibly be?
