Does Your Water Smell Like Sulphur or Rotten Eggs?

Find out how to fix this problem, quick–with the help of your friendly Culligan Man

Often if your water smells like sulphur or rotten eggs, the reason is because 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.)

A rotten-egg smell in your water may be strongest right after turning the water on, as heat forces the gas out of the water and into the air

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

How Do You Fix It?

At Culligan, you can find everything you need to get rid of H2S and that sulphur/rotten-egg smell from your water.

The first step we have to take is to test your water, so we can be sure of the real cause of the rotten-egg smell.

Fortunately, at Culligan we offer this service free. One of our water consultants will come to your home to test the water (you can’t send it away to a laboratory because H2S is a gas and could dissipate during transport) and let you know the source of your rotten-egg smell. You’re under no obligation whatsoever.

I present to you my honest opinion of the Culligan 10×40 Medallist water conditioning system. It was almost an immediate improvement in the performance of the dish washer when the system was installed. All evidence of the white crusty calcium residue also disappeared. I can only imagine the additional life my hot water heater will realize due to the same conditions. I also had a 20″ Big Blue 20 Micron carbon filter installed for additional protection. With well water and semi-annual flushes of the neighborhood water supply, I felt this system would catch any harmful materials that would be present. Between my two systems and the filter in the refrigerator itself, I see no need to purchase bottled water as our water tastes great.

My Culligan water system has provided outstanding quality water since it was installed 6 years ago. My well water was saturated with iron and clay which created a real challenge.

My Culligan water system has provided outstanding quality water since it was installed 6 years ago. My well water was saturated with iron and clay which created a real challenge. Throughout my time with Culligan, I’ve experienced excellent service and support from my salesperson, Joey, and the service technicians during annual cartridge and filter replacement. I sincerely appreciate their commitment to customer service and care.

The Culligan team, especially Joey, gave us superb insight on our water condition as well as providing us with only the necessary services our family needed. He did not try to sell us on over-the-top, unnecessary options that would not benefit us. His focus was on what were our needs,

The Culligan team, especially Joey, gave us superb insight on our water condition as well as providing us with only the necessary services our family needed. He did not try to sell us on over-the-top, unnecessary options that would not benefit us. His focus was on what were our needs, and that is a quality I have not seen for a long time. My personal and professional experience from Joey has been a blessing to our home.

We could not be more pleased with our Culligan system. We have the whole house filter, reverse osmosis filter, and water softener. Since the system has been in place we have seen great improvements in our health, as well as other things like cleaner laundry and dishes. Our water appliances, especially the newer ones we had to replace because of corrosion due to unfiltered water, are in great shape. Joey is always very professional and informative, and really helped us pick the system that best suited our needs. We highly recommend Culligan!
