Smelly or Foul-Smelling Water?

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

Homeowners of Sussex can notice reddish staining on fixtures – toilets, sinks, showers – suggests high iron level. A nasty smell, like rotten eggs, indicates beyond-acceptable sulfur level.

A single filter can take care of both … and provide instant relief from these unmistakeable symptoms.

This filter system, usually called 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 appealing, and much less detrimental.

The iron filter system involves two fiberglass tanks. The first tank oxygenates water to separate out impurities; the second employs minerals to remove the impurities. Once finished, the treated water transfers into the water softener.

Installing a filter implements an immediate transformation in home water quality. Water smells better. It won’t leave blemishes. Many Sussex homeowners ask, “Why didn’t we do this before?”

Are you prepared? If you want a new or replacement iron/sulfur water filter in Sussex contact Kelly James Service. Its plumbing professionals are masters at analyzing water issues, and providing solutions to create the absolute best water quality.

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

A Sussex home’s water can change over time. Drilling a new well, for example, might draw from an underground water with different properties. If stains or smells show up later, a filter might be a smart investment.
