Rotten egg smell in your drinking water is usually one of two culprits: Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) or Sulfates
H2S is a mineral released from the earth that finds its way into groundwater.
Sulfates are sulfur-containing compounds found in nature that bacteria can turn into H2S.
H2S in gas form is quite dangerous, however, when dissolved in water it is less so, but it still poses health risks.
So how does H2S get in your water? It is often there naturally. If you are on city water, an attempt has been made to reduce it to “not unhealthy” levels.
If you are on well water, it’s especially common in wells located near shale, sandstone, coal, peat, or oil, like those in many areas of the State.
Occasionally, a rotten-egg smell in your water could also be associated with sewage contamination or bacteria in your water heater…
The most important thing to note is that it is ALWAYS worthwhile to get your water tested if you have smelly water. H2S in higher concentrations poses immediate risks including nausea, vomiting, and potentially serious health effects in the long term.
Protect appliances, fixtures, and clothing from iron staining, and eliminate the rotten-egg odor caused by hydrogen sulfide gas in your water with the electric, single-tank Powerline™ Pro Series Filters.
The first step is to figure out what is actually causing the smell. That usually involves a water test.
Next, once you know the cause, then you can move on to removing the contaminants, which, with H2S, isn’t usually as simple as adding in a filter.
This is where it becomes useful to have professional help. For CA, AAA Water Systems, Inc will do Free water testing to determine the source of the smell.
With those test results, we can tell you exactly what you’ll need to fix the problem. We have plenty of experience with the local water and we know what works.
After that, there’s no obligation to purchase equipment from us. Our goal is to provide you the information you need to make the best decision for your family.

Just completed the yearly maintenance services. Technician reached within the scheduled window and explain it well. He took care of cleaning up everything including water etc.
It was time to replace our old Kinetico water softener system and Soni came today, explained our options and helped us with decide with best option for us....
Oscar was excellent and made sure to do the job properly and professionally. He was also knowledgeable and helped answer any questions related to the RO or Softner.I would like to give a big Thank You to Seth Stephenson who came to my home and... introduced me to Kinetico by AAA Water Systems. A few weeks prior to calling Seth I had already committed to ECOWATER systems from COSTCO however since their installation was pushed to late June I had some time for more research.Thank goodness I did as my neighbor mentioned about the Kinetico Softner and RO from AAA Water Systems. My neighbor mentioned that they had their Kinetico softner and RO for 10 years and were still loving it. My main concerns were reliability, warranty, and the cost of maintenance. When Seth came and did his presentation he was very honest with me and knowledgeable. He was not trying to make a quick sell or steer me away from ECOWATER by bad mouthing them. However everything he explained seemed to have more PROs Vs. CONs when comparing it to the ECOWATER Systems.I was really impressed with Seths professionalism and how he eased all of my concerns with the maintenance and reliability of both the Kinetico Softner & RO. Since the install was complete I had a few minor issues but Seth was there for me checking up and making sure everything was being taken care of. He would call me regularly and even off work hours to handle the issues by placing calls and sending the right team members to fix the issues. With his dedicated service and how he treated me I would gladly recommend him and Kinetico by AAA Water Systems to all my family and friends.Seth really proved that he values his relationship with his customers and wants AAA waters to always live up to it’s high standards of service and reliability. Thank you again Seth as I look forward to continuing our business relationship for many more years.read more

Frequently Asked Smelly Water Questions:
How to get rid of sulfur smell in water?
You can get rid of a sulfur smell in water by using a water filtration system.
Well water smells like rotten eggs. How to fix?
You can fix well water that smells like rotten eggs by using a water purification system designed specifically for your well water.
What causes sulfur smell in well water?
A sulfur smell in well water is caused by
There are typically two water contaminants that can cause your water to smell like sulfur or rotten eggs, one is Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) and the other is iron or sulfates. H2S is a mineral 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.
