Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some unappreciated traits of a home’s water are hard to ignore.

Residents of Okauchee can notice reddish discoloration on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – points to elevated iron content. A nasty odor, like rotten eggs, points to beyond-acceptable sulfur level.

One filter can solve both … and provide instant respite from these annoying symptoms.

This filter system, often called 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 operations make water far more appealing, 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 implements an immediate difference in home water properties. Water smells far more appealing. It won’t leave blemishes. Many Okauchee homeowners ask, “Why didn’t we do this sooner?”

Are you prepared? If you want a new or replacement iron/sulfur water filter in Okauchee contact Kelly James Service. Its plumbing practitioners are masters at diagnosing water problems, and offering solutions to create the absolute top 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 last more than two decades.

A Okauchee home’s water can change over time. Drilling a new well, for example, might tap an underground water with different properties. If stains or smells show up later, a filter might be in order.

Kelly James Service can assess your water and suggest steps to make it better. We all need water – why not make it as good as it can possibly be?
