Water at House-New Reverse Osmosis Filter at Kitchen Sink
The well water has a sulfur smell. The water has been tested and its safe to drink but we did install a large reverse osmosis filter system at the kitchen sink - faucet to the right so you can get filtered water easily for drinking/cooking. For the other faucets the more you run the hot water the sulfur smell should reduce.
