Default Sulfur in Tap Water

Hi Ryan,

I also have sulfur in my water. There are a couple of possibilities:
your well goes throu coal or there is a volatile sulfur releasing
bacteria that 'flavors' the water. If this is the case, you can pour
the water into jugs and allow them to sit overnight or for 24 hours
(cover with a cotton cloth) to offgas the volatile sulfur. You'll
know after doing that if it has been released. A solid carbon filter
will remove the sulfur to make your water drinkable.
