Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some uninvited elements of a house's water are nearly impossible to pass by.

Homeowners of Okauchee can notice reddish discoloration on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – suggests elevated iron level. A nose-turning odor, like rotten eggs, signifies elevated sulfur content.

One filter can address both … and offer immediate respite from these bothersome symptoms.

This filter system, often termed 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 operations make water far more appealing, and much less detrimental.

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

Installing a filter creates an immediate change in home water properties. Water smells better. It won’t stain. Many Okauchee homeowners ask, “Why didn’t we do this earlier?”

A filter system should be serviced every two to three years to clean out 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 morph over time. Drilling a new well, for example, might tap an underground water source with different properties. If stains or smells appear later, a filter might be a smart investment.
