CONDITION: Water smells like rotten eggs.
REASON: Hydrogen sulfide and/or sulfate reducing bacteria may be present in the water
supply.
SOLUTION: The system is not designed to remove hydrogen sulfide and/or sulfate
reducing bacteria. Such a situation may lead to premature plugging of this device and
therefore should be addressed prior to installation.
CONDITION: Water from the system is rusty or red in color.
REASON: There is a high content of soluble (i.e. dissolved) and/or insoluble (i.e.
colloidal/particulate) iron present in your water supply.
SOLUTION: The system is not designed to remove soluble iron or a high content of
insoluble iron. Such a situation may lead to premature plugging of this device and
therefore should be addressed prior to installation.
