Water Problem : Hydrogen Sulfide | Sulfur
Dissolved gas can cause cloudiness and bad odors in water. It can also cause pipes to hammer and spit gas and water when the faucet is opened. Hydrogen sulfide gas (commonly referred to as Sulphur) smells like rotten eggs and is occasionally present in underground aquifers. These gases can be corrosive to plumbing systems, leave greasy black residue and cause wear on valves, seats and washers. Rotten egg odor can also occur when sulphur-reducing bacteria are present in the well.
Water Problem : Nitrate
Nitrate (NO3) is a naturally occurring form of nitrogen (N) which is very mobile in water. It is essential for plant growth and is often added to soil to improve productivity. Water moving down through soil after rainfall or irrigation carries dissolved nitrate with it to ground water. It is also common from leakage of septic tanks. In this way, nitrate enters the water supplies of many homeowners who wells or springs. Drinking water high in nitrate is potentially harmful to human and animal health.
Water Problem : Arsenic
Arsenic is an odorless, tasteless heavy metal that naturally occurs in the environment. It is also a by-product of agricultural and industrial activities. Human exposure to arsenic can cause health effects and long term exposure has been linked to cancer. The US Environmental Protection Agency's standard for maximum level of arsenic is 10 parts per billion.
Water Problem : Bacteria
Bacteria in water can take many forms and the best way to know the type present is to have your water professionally tested. A common symptom of bacteria in water is a slime build-up in the toilet tank. Often different types of organic matter can cause your water to taste and smell bad. Some types of bacteria can cause serious health concerns such as e-coli. Many however, are just aesthetically unpleasant causing troublesome issues with taste, odor and bio fouling problems.
Water Problem : Tannins
Tannins make water look yellow or brownish in color. It caused staining on clothes and fixtures and makes the water look murky and unclear. Tannins are composed of tiny pieces or organic material floating in the water and are typically caused by decomposing vegetation getting into water supplies.
Water Problem : Chlorine
Chlorine can make water smell and taste bad and is a known carcinogen. Chlorine is a powerful oxidant and is commonly used as a disinfectant in commercial and household sanitation, bleaching, and in maintaining swimming pools. The most significant application is in the disinfection of public water supplies where it’s used to manage bacteria levels in drinking water and kill other potentially harmful agents that seep into lakes, rivers, streams or ground water. Chlorine, even at acceptable household levels, can contribute to dry eyes and skin irritation as well as exacerbate conditions such as eczema.
Water Problem : Acidic Water (Low pH)
Acid water cannot be detected by the water's appearance, feel or odor. Its symptoms, however, are very apparent. Acid water is corrosive and can eat away chrome fixtures, copper pipe, fittings and metal parts of water using appliances. The corroded texture of fixtures, the blue green stains on sinks and tubs are all signs of damage from acid water. Acid water causes pinhole leaks in copper pipes and when the pipe is behind a wall or ceiling the water damage effects can be catastrophic.
Water Problem : Hard Water
Hard water is created when water passes through rock formations and picks up calcium and magnesium. Hard water is easy to spot; it leaves a bathtub ring made up of hardness minerals and soap. It stains your glassware leaving milky streaks and water spots as well as stains and residue on your silverware. This scum collects on shower walls, clings to hair, clogs skin pores and makes house cleaning extremely difficult. Hard water deposits also clog pipes, cause water heaters to operate inefficiently, and increase the maintenance on water using appliances.
Water Problem : Iron
Iron water is created when ground water passes through iron-bearing rocks. Because iron accounts for 5% of the earth's crust, it can be found in just about all types of water supplies. It can also be caused, usually temporarily, by water standing in iron pipes. Iron has the tendency to leave stains on sinks; tubs, toilets, clothing and linens, or it can form scale and clog plumbing and water using appliances. It can make the water turn color, smell and taste bad.
ETF 2300 Carbon Filter | Chemical Injection with Hydrogen Peroxide
Occasionally, a rotten egg odor is only present in the hot water. If this is the case, the problem may be simply fixed by servicing your hot water heater. When present in the cold water, a test is needed to determine the concentration of sulphur gas and the type of treatment necessary for its elimination. In some cases a cartridge filter or backwashing carbon filter will handle it, however stronger concentrations may require oxidation with an oxidizing filter. In the instance of sulphur-reducing bacteria, Chemical Injection with Hydrogen Perodixe is the best solution.

Arsenic removal can be simple or challenging depending on its classification or form. Water sampling and testing is mandatory to determine the technology required to reduce or remove the arsenic. To effectively eliminate arsenic whole house water treatment is recommended. Where iron is present, an oxidation / filtration process could be the best method of removal. Oxidation with chemical feed or an oxidizing filter will convert the iron to the ferric form. The arsenic will be in the pentavalent form and adhere to the oxidized iron. The filtration process will remove both the arsenic and the iron from the water supply. If iron is not present, the arsenic can be removed by adsorption with a special media bed in a simple backwashing filter. Point-of-Use alternatives may include a reverse osmosis drinking water system.

ETF 2300 Neutralizer | Soda Ash CHemical Feed System
The actual pH test will determine the best option in adjusting it to acceptable levels. When pH registers 6.0 or higher, an ETF 2300 neutralizing filter with self-sacrificing media is used to raise pH to 7.0 or higher. When pH registers below 6.0 the best option is a chemical feed system using soda ash. In either case the goal is to raise pH to 7.0 or higher to eliminate the acidity and eliminate the corrosive effects.
