Sulfur Water Solutions

How do I know if I have Sulfur Problems with my Water?
If your water has a metallic taste or red/yellow colorization, you very well may have iron in your water. See the EPA Office of Ground & Drinking Water-Local Water Report for information on water in your area. If you have a well or are located in a municipality not listed in this report, you may conduct a water test to confirm the amount of iron in my water. You can contact a state-certified lab for testing, or you can test the water yourself with a water test kit. Scroll down on this page for more information on determining whether your water's problem is indeed iron.

What Level of Sulfur is safe in my Water?
