Iron Filtration Systems in Michigan

Why Does My Water Smell?

Numerous factors can contribute to this issue, each indicating a different underlying cause that requires expert attention. 

Typically, the smells include:

• Sulfur smell: Often likened to rotten eggs, this odor is usually a sign of hydrogen sulfide gas in your water. Hydrogen sulfide can occur naturally in groundwater or be produced by sulfur-reducing bacteria in your water system or water heater.
• Earthy or musty odors: These smells can originate from organic matter like leaves, soil, or algae decaying within your water supply. It's pervasive in surface water sources or well water.
• Metallic smell: A metallic taste or smell hints at elevated levels of metals such as iron, manganese, zinc, or copper in your water. These metals can naturally seep into groundwater or come from corroding pipes.

How to Know if You Have Iron & Manganese in Your Water

Knowing if iron and manganese are in your water supply is crucial for maintaining the health and aesthetics of your home's water system. 

Here's how you can tell:

• Staining: Iron often leaves behind orange or reddish stains on fixtures, laundry, and dishes. Manganese, on the other hand, will leave black or purple marks. These stains are not only unsightly but can also be challenging to remove.
• Taste: High levels of iron or manganese can give your water a metallic taste, making it unpleasant to drink and affecting the flavor of food cooked with water.
• Cloudiness and color change: If your water looks clear at first but turns orange or brown after sitting for a while, this is a classic sign of iron. Manganese might cause your water to appear blackish.
• Buildup in plumbing: Accumulation of iron and manganese can lead to clogs and corrosion in your plumbing, reducing water flow and the efficiency of water heaters and appliances.

Air-Injection Filtration Systems Rid Your Home of Iron & Unpleasant Odor 

The Beauchamp Water Treatment Solutions air-injection oxidizing filtration system stores a head of air within our exclusive filtration media tank. As your water passes through the air, iron, manganese, and HS are converted to particles, which are then trapped by the filtration media. The air is gradually consumed by the water passing through the media tank. The system then cleans itself every three days or runs by the number of gallons used to assure your home has clean, iron, and odor-free water. The best thing is that it requires ZERO maintenance by the homeowner!
