Rotten Egg Smell in Water

Culligan of Nashville’s Sulfur water filtration is certified to NSF/ANSI 42 for hydrogen sulfide reduction in the Nashville area.

Does Your Water Smell Like Sulfur or Rotten Eggs in the Nashville area?

Usually, if your water smells like sulfur or rotten eggs, the reason is that 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.)

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 

There's a Filter Built Specifically For This

There's a Filter Built Specifically For This

Hydrogen sulfide has a dedicated solution. Not a general-purpose carbon filter that helps for a while, but a system that uses aeration to address the gas at the point where water enters your home, certified against a standard written for exactly this.

That means a shower that smells like nothing. Coffee that tastes like coffee. Laundry without black specks. Water you can offer a guest without explaining.

Aquasential® Sulfur Water Filter

Tested and certified by WQA against NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for the effective reduction of hydrogen sulfide up to 500 gallons, plus NSF/ANSI 372. Indoor systems are also certified to CSA B483.1.

Aquasential® Iron Water Filter

If you have orange stains as well as the smell, this one covers both. Certified by WQA against NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for iron reduction, and it’s a two-in-one system addressing both iron and hydrogen sulfide.

I had a fantastic experience working with Culligan of Nashville. Tyler and Shane were excellent to work with, and I can't highly recommend them enough. The install went perfectly, and communication was excellent throughout the whole process. If you're looking to get a water softener installed, I would highly recommend going with them and asking for Tyler!

Our system started leaking last night and we had to turn the water off to the house. I called the emergency line and Dalton came out immediately even though it was 830 at night. He promptly fixed it and in fact, upgraded our parts so we wouldn’t have any problems in the future. He was pleasant And friendly. He was a real lifesaver.
Andrew was fantastic—friendly, professional, and easy to work with. He was extremely knowledgeable about the products and took the time to walk us through the options, ultimately helping us select the one that best fit our team’s needs. It’s been a perfect addition to our breakroom, and we couldn’t be happier!
Lisa High was our sales person. She was very personal and friendly. No pressure to make an immediate decision, she just explained options. Our Culligan water feels great, tastes great, and we no longer have to squeegee the shower doors!
Dalton came out today to service my water system. He was very friendly, knowledgeable, and timely. He went above and beyond for me. I truly appreciate the exceptional service that was provided by him and the company. I would recommend Dalton and Culligan to anyone looking for a water filtration system. Thanks for the great service!
Smooth installation and demonstrations during business hours. It was a seamless process.
