When you fill a glass of water to quench your thirst, nothing is more unpleasant than being hit by a strong smell of rotten eggs, sewage, or chlorine. Many homeowners face this issue, where their tap water emits an odd odor. According to a 2019 Consumer Reports survey, nearly half of Americans who use city water have experienced strange smells from their taps. In many cases, it's hard to determine the exact cause through standard water testing. That’s why Office H2O has created this helpful guide to explain why your tap water might smell bad and how you can fix it.
One of the most common odors reported is that of rotten eggs or sewage. This smell is often caused by bacteria in your plumbing system. These bacteria can accumulate in drains, especially when soap and food particles mix with stagnant water. When you turn on the faucet, the gas produced by these bacteria gets released, making it seem like the water itself is smelly. To check if this is the case, fill a glass of water from the tap, move to another room, and smell it. If it doesn’t smell, the source is likely your drain.
Bacteria in your water heater can also cause a similar foul odor, especially after long periods of inactivity, such as during a vacation. The bacteria react with parts of the heater and produce hydrogen sulfide gas, which gives off a rotten egg smell. If the odor only appears when using hot water, it’s probably coming from the heater. To address this, you can raise the temperature of the heater for 24 hours and run hot water to flush out the bacteria. If the problem persists, a licensed plumber may need to replace the anode rods in the heater.
Another common smell is that of bleach or chemicals, which is usually due to excess chlorine in the water. While chlorine is added to water to kill harmful pathogens, too much of it can result in a strong chemical odor. This smell typically goes away once the chlorine dissipates. If you notice it, try running your outdoor faucets for a few minutes to help reduce the concentration of chlorine.
A moldy or fishy odor could be caused by organic matter in the drain or well, or even by metals like barium or cadmium seeping into the pipes. Fungi or algae in the water reservoir or pressure tank can also contribute to this kind of smell. To resolve this, you can clean and sanitize the affected areas and consider installing an activated carbon filter to improve the water quality.
