Project Results:

  • Before: "Rotten egg" smell, orange laundry, hardness of 25 GPG (Extremely Hard).
  • The Fix: A 3-Stage System: Air-Injection for Iron/Sulfur + High-Capacity Softener + Kitchen RO.
  • After: 0 GPG Hardness, zero odor, crystal clear water.
  • Client Verdict: "Life-changing. We finally love our home."

Client: A Celina, TX Family (Private Well)

Problem: Severe "roten egg" smell throughout the house, heavy orange staining in all bathrooms and on laundry, and extreme hard water buildup on fixtures.

Initial On-Site Water Analysis:

  • Water Hardness: 25 Grains Per Gallon (GPG) - "Extremely Hard"
  • Iron: 2.5 PPM - High, causing significant staining.
  • Hydrogen Sulfide: Present, causing strong odor.
  • Bacteria Test: Negative (a crucial first step).

Our Professional Solution:

For a multi-faceted problem, we designed a multi-stage system to treat all the water entering the home:

  1. Air Injection Oxidation (AIO) Filter: Installed as the first step to oxidize and remove the iron and hydrogen sulfide, eliminating stains and odor.
  2. Well Water Softener: A high-capacity, 64,000-grain softener with 10% crosslink resin to handle the extreme hardness and protect the home's plumbing and appliances.
  3. Reverse Osmosis (RO) system (USA-Made Option Installed): Installed at the kitchen sink for pure, great-tasting drinking and cooking water.

Post-Installation Results:

  • Water Hardness: ~0 GPG (below detectable limits on a standard field test)
  • Iron & Sulfur: Not detectable.
  • Odor & Staining: Completely eliminated.

Homeowner Feedback:

"We almost regretted buying a house with a well. The smell was embarrassing and everything was stained orange. The system Water Fixers put in has been life-changing. Our water is crystal clear, has no smell, and feels amazing. We finally love our home." - A Celina Homeowner.
