Staining
Iron, manganese and tannins are common causes for yellow, orange/rust or black-colored staining in sinks, bathtubs, toilets and your laundry.
Odors
Common water odors include a rotten egg smell from hydrogen sulfide gas in well water or a bleach-like smell from high chlorine levels in city water.
Bad Taste
Bad tasting water is typically a sulfur-like taste in well water, a strong chlorine taste from city water or a metallic taste from poorly balanced RO systems.
Bacteria
Dangerous bacteria, viruses and cysts, many of which are tasteless and odorless, can contaminate the water throughout your home without warning.
