Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

Some uninvited characteristics of a house's water are nearly impossible to pass by.

Residents of Durham can notice reddish staining on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – suggests high iron level. A bothersome aroma, like rotten eggs, signifies high sulfur level.

A single filter can address both … and provide immediate relief from these unmistakeable symptoms.

This filter system, typically named 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 harmful.

The iron filter system employs two fiberglass tanks. The first tank oxygenates water to separate out impurities; the second uses minerals to eliminate the impurities. Once done, the treated water moves into the water softener.

Adding a filter implements an immediate difference in home water quality. Water smells better. It won’t leave blemishes. Many Durham residents ask, “Why didn’t we do this before?”

Are you prepared? If you want a new or replacement iron/sulfur water filter in Durham contact Kelly James Service. Its plumbing practitioners are specialists at diagnosing water problems, and providing solutions to create the absolute top water quality.

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 Durham home’s water can morph over time. Drilling a new well, for example, might utilize an underground water vein with different properties. If stains or smells show up afterward, a filter might be a smart investment.
