Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

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

Residents of Fort Atkinson can notice reddish staining on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – indicates elevated iron content. A bothersome smell, like rotten eggs, points to elevated sulfur level.

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

This filter system, often labeled an iron water filter or sulfur filter for well water, fits 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 employs two fiberglass tanks. The first tank oxygenates water to separate out impurities; the second uses minerals to remove the impurities. Once completed, the treated water transfers into the water softener.

Installing a filter creates an immediate change in home water quality. Water smells better. It doesn’t leave blemishes. Many Fort Atkinson homeowners ask, “Why didn’t we do this sooner?”

Are you ready? If you want a new or replacement iron/sulfur water filter in Fort Atkinson contact Kelly James Service. Its plumbing practitioners are masters at diagnosing water problems, and providing solutions to ensure the absolute best water quality.

A filter system should be serviced every two to three years to clean out iron from the tanks. Properly maintained, an iron filter or filter for sulfur water smell can work more than two decades.

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

Kelly James Service can test your water and suggest steps to improve it. We all use water – why not make it as good as it can possibly be?
