The “Rotten Egg” Smell
If your water smells like rotten eggs, the culprit is most likely hydrogen sulfide. Hydrogen sulfide is a gas naturally produced underground. Despite being a gas, hydrogen sulfide easily dissolves into water, contaminating it with that infamous rotten egg taste. Hydrogen sulfide contamination is most common in well water, but it can also be caused by a malfunctioning water heater. If left untreated, hydrogen sulfide will not just make your water taste terrible; it can corrode your pipes and lead to expensive repairs.

The “Metallic” Smell
If your water smells and tastes like old coins, your water system may have mineral contamination. These can be caused by old corroded pipes or by natural veins of minerals leaching into groundwater. These minerals, including manganese, copper, or iron, can give your water a negative taste and smell and may have adverse health effects in large quantities. Advanced Water Treatment is here to help you identify the source and find a solution.
