Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some unwelcome characteristics of a home’s water are difficult to miss.

Homeowners of Okauchee can notice reddish blemishes on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – signifies high iron content. A nose-turning odor, like rotten eggs, points to high sulfur content.

One filter can address both … and provide immediate respite from these unmistakeable symptoms.

This filter system, typically named 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 inviting, and much less damaging.

The iron filter system employs two fiberglass tanks. The first tank oxygenates water to divide out impurities; the second employs minerals to eliminate the impurities. Once finished, the treated water flows into the water softener.

Adding a filter implements an instant change in home water quality. Water smells better. It won’t leave blemishes. Many Okauchee homeowners think, “Why didn’t we do this sooner?”
