The most common cause of “smelly water” is a non-toxic sulfate reducing bacteria, scientifically termed Divibrio Sulfurcans. This bacteria often enters the water system through construction or a break in ground piping.
The bacteria creates the energy it needs to survive by converting sulfate (SO4) to hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas you smell in the water. Hydrogen sulfide gas is distinctive because of its rotten egg-like stench. Its presence can severely affect the taste as well as the odor of the water.
The simplest treatment available is the shock-chlorination of the system. This is a surface treatment, and often requires repeated trials in heavily infected systems. The chlorination of a system requires that you follow each step explicitly to avoid an un-treated portion of the piping system from reinfecting another part. Longer lasting solutions include chlorination or aeration of the water supply.flushing mechanism. It is very important to stop the leak. Stop the leak and stop the expensive water bill from hitting you every month.

I would like to thank AAA Auger for their kind customer service and promptness in response to my plumbing problem I’ve been having. The service tech. Carlos, that was dispatched on my order ticket was the most well mannered, respectful and nicest person. His knowledge of his work was most impressive and gave me a lesson in how to maintain my drains and what to use and not use to keep them flowing and clean. I couldn’t have asked for a better person that respresents your company and that actually cares about the customer and reputation of the company he works for. Thank you again for your promt (REALLY, REALLY FAST SERVICE). I’m a repeat customer and will recommend your company to all.
