Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

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

Homeowners of Okauchee Lake can notice reddish discoloration on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – indicates elevated iron level. A bothersome aroma, like rotten eggs, signifies high sulfur content.

A single filter can solve both … and deliver immediate respite from these unmistakeable symptoms.

This filter system, usually called 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 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 introduces minerals to eliminate the impurities. Once done, the treated water goes into the water softener.

Adding a filter implements an instant change in home water quality. Water smells far more appealing. It doesn’t stain. Many Okauchee Lake homeowners wonder, “Why didn’t we do this earlier?”

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