Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some unwelcome qualities of a house's water are difficult to overlook.

Homeowners of Marcy can notice reddish blemishes on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – points to elevated iron content. A putrid smell, like rotten eggs, points to elevated sulfur content.

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

This filter system, usually labeled an iron water filter or sulfur filter for well water, gets installed into a home’s plumbing between the pressure tank and water softener. Its processes make water far more appealing, and much less damaging.

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

Adding a filter makes an immediate difference in home water conditions. Water smells far more appealing. It doesn’t stain. Many Marcy residents wonder, “Why didn’t we do this earlier?”
