Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some uninvited traits of a house's water are nearly impossible to overlook.

Homeowners of Waterloo can notice reddish discoloration on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – suggests elevated iron content. A bothersome odor, like rotten eggs, indicates high sulfur content.

A single filter can take care of both … and offer immediate relief from these bothersome symptoms.

This filter system, usually named an iron water filter or sulfur filter for well water, is installed into a home’s plumbing between the pressure tank and water softener. Its operations make water far more inviting, and much less problematic.

The iron filter system uses two fiberglass tanks. The first tank oxygenates water to shake out impurities; the second introduces minerals to eliminate the impurities. Once finished, the treated water goes into the water softener.

Installing a filter makes an immediate change in home water conditions. Water smells better. It won’t leave blemishes. Many Waterloo homeowners wonder, “Why didn’t we do this sooner?”

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 Waterloo home’s water can morph over time. Drilling a new well, for example, might draw from an underground water source with different properties. If stains or smells appear afterward, a filter might be recommended.
