I have a lot of sulphur in my water....what is the best way to get rid of this so my house doesn't smell like one big rotten egg???!!? Are the big storage tanks that are outside the best? If so, where do you get those? Thanks!

You should have a water test done. The health dept. can usually do them cheaply, around here I think it is ~$30. It may be coliform bacteria in your well, this gives off a sulfur smell. If it is coliform, you just need to chlorinate the well, not too hard to do & you can google how to do it for your well/pump type.

does the water from your hydrant smell funky or just in the house........if its just in the house then its the annoid in the hot water tank doin it ........had the same problem....we cut the annoid out(it does x out the warranty on the tank but id rather that than the smell).........
