Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some uninvited elements of a home’s water are difficult to miss.

Residents of Big Bend can notice reddish discoloration on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – signifies high iron content. A nasty aroma, like rotten eggs, indicates elevated sulfur level.

One filter can take care of both … and offer instant respite from these bothersome symptoms.

This filter system, usually called 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 harmful.

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

Adding a filter makes an immediate difference in home water quality. Water smells better. It doesn’t leave blemishes. Many Big Bend homeowners ponder, “Why didn’t we do this before?”

A Big Bend 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 appear later, a filter might be in order.
