Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some unappreciated qualities of a house's water are hard to overlook.

Homeowners of Juneau can notice reddish staining on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – signifies elevated iron content. A nose-turning smell, like rotten eggs, points to elevated sulfur content.

A single filter can take care of both … and provide immediate respite from these annoying symptoms.

This filter system, commonly termed an iron water filter or sulfur filter for well water, goes into a home’s plumbing between the pressure tank and water softener. Its processes make water far more inviting, and much less problematic.

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 done, the treated water goes into the water softener.

Adding a filter creates an immediate change in home water properties. Water smells better. It doesn’t leave blemishes. Many Juneau residents ask, “Why didn’t we do this sooner?”

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 work more than two decades.

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