Frequently Asked Questions
Report
A rotten-egg odor in some well water (not WMWA-supplied water) is caused by a smelly chemical - hydrogen sulfide - dissolved in the water. Algae and tiny fungi which grow in surface water sources may give off nontoxic chemicals that may cause discernible tastes and odors in drinking water. Different algae cause different tastes and odors such as - grassy, swampy, or fishy, for example- and other certain fungi can cause an earthy-musty taste.
