Hydrogen Sulfide Water Filtration
If your water smells like rotten eggs, it may be a sign of sulfur in your water. While not typically harmful at low levels, sulfur can cause a bad smell in your water as well as plumbing issues. Testing for water and using specialty hydrogen sulfide water filters and treatments can reduce and eliminate rotten egg smell from your water systems.

Where Does Hydrogen Sulfide in Water Come From?
Hydrogen sulfide is a naturally occurring element in nature and can be found in wells that draw from shale or sandstone. Hydrogen sulfide gas, known for its “rotten eggs” smell, is formed when bacteria break down organic matter in low-oxygen environments such as deep wells. Hydrogen Sulfide can also be released into water systems through corroding water heaters and plumbing systems.How to Tell if You Have Hydrogen Sulfide in Your Water
Common signs of sulfur in water include:- Rotten egg odor
- Black stains on plumbing fixtures
- Corrosion or damage to water appliances
Testing for Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) in Water
The best way to confirm hydrogen sulfide presence and levels is through professional water testing. Request an appointment for a free water test today, and our team will offer recommendations based on the results.Hydrogen Sulfide Water Filtration Process
Hydrogen Sulfide can be filtered from water systems in different ways:- Whole House Hydrogen Sulfide Water Filters: Whole house filters are installed at the point of entry to remove hydrogen sulfide and supply clean water throughout the water system.
- Reverse Osmosis Filters: Reverse osmosis filters provide an extra layer of protection, particularly for drinking water. These filters force the water through a semipermeable membrane, effectively removing hydrogen sulfide, odors, and other impurities.
