I just moved to a very very small town (50ish miles from the TC area in MN) and it's been great, except for the water. I didn't notice the issue when I looked at the place prior to buying nor did my very intensive home inspection pick it up (and I swear I turned on a facet or two during my first visit).
Here's the issue - immediately upon move in I noticed a sulfur smell (you can't not notice is, which is why I'm kinda confused because I know I turned on facets when looking at the house and didn't note any odd smells). It's from both hot and cold, not just hot (so not a water heater issue). I tried turning on all the facets and just letting the water run for a few minutes and that has helped. Now the smell isn't present all the time but some of the time - which is confusing me.
I called the city and he said that it's very common (said welcome to small town living) and that there are also high amounts of Iron and Magnesium in the system and they flush twice a year. Was told this wouldn't cause any issues with people or pets but when I said "Well what about my pet fish?" he couldn't answer that (he meant cats/dogs).
So, here I am...with this type of water can I look at setting up a tank or should I call Culligan and look at full house filtration systems? Also if the filtration system is the way to go, is there better ones then others for fishkeeping?
