Rotten Egg Smell in Water

Culligan of Cleveland’s Sulfur water filtration is certified to NSF/ANSI 42 for hydrogen sulfide reduction in Northeast Ohio.

Does Your Water Smell Like Sulfur or Rotten Eggs in Northeast Ohio?

Usually, if your water smells like sulfur or rotten eggs, the reason is that your water has high Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) content.

H2S is a gas that is released from the earth and finds its way into groundwater. It’s especially common in well water located near shale, sandstone, coal, peat, or oil.

(Occasionally, a rotten-egg smell in your water could also be caused by a water heater or by sewage pollution in your water. If you’re on city water, the most likely explanation is your water heater.)

H2S dissolves in water to create a weak acid that can corrode metal pipes

Negative Effects of H2S

In addition to potential health risks, having H2S in your water can cause all sorts of annoying problems. H2S in your water can:

  • Cause coffee and tea to be discolored and taste funny
  • Corrode metals (steel, copper, iron, brass), including silverware
  • Cause foods cooked with water to taste “off”
  • Create yellow or black stains in your bathroom and kitchen 

There's a Filter Built Specifically For This

There's a Filter Built Specifically For This

Hydrogen sulfide has a dedicated solution. Not a general-purpose carbon filter that helps for a while, but a system that uses aeration to address the gas at the point where water enters your home, certified against a standard written for exactly this.

That means a shower that smells like nothing. Coffee that tastes like coffee. Laundry without black specks. Water you can offer a guest without explaining.

Aquasential® Sulfur Water Filter

Tested and certified by WQA against NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for the effective reduction of hydrogen sulfide up to 500 gallons, plus NSF/ANSI 372. Indoor systems are also certified to CSA B483.1.

Aquasential® Iron Water Filter

If you have orange stains as well as the smell, this one covers both. Certified by WQA against NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for iron reduction, and it’s a two-in-one system addressing both iron and hydrogen sulfide.

At my age, I am not able to carry 5 gallons into the house. So they slide it inside the door so my nephew can take it the rest of the way when he gets home from school.
They are punctual, courteous, and efficient. The water is always taste free and refreshing.
