Will it remove sulfur from our well water?

Yes, depending on the filter that you use. The filter that came with this housing reduced but did not eliminate the smell. I now use a Culligan level 4 fine sediment filter, which removed the surfer order. With my well I need to change it every month, but your results will vary.

i don't know about well water, but it is supposed to remove everything from tap water.

I use my system due to high sulfur becouse of volcano and my ppm comes out 0.0 and only problem is cost of new filters but system works great but I also added uv light hope this helps

I also have well water (rural Oregon) and it seems to work just fine. Enjoy!

John, While this stuff is strong enough to clean water distiller tanks (Which is very difficult to remove due to the almost baked like minerals deposits and such, sulfamic acid will not remove grout but it will remove grout haze very well, it's safe for the tiles and grout even at the highest sulfamic concentrations when mixed).

I think it does. It is supposed to break down anything organic. But hard to tell overall effectiveness, unless you can actually examine the pipes. I just have to gauge by how slow the water drains out.

That is what we are using it for. We have coliform bacteria in our well and since we've been using this the bacteria is gone.

Absolutely. Our water has a high sulfur content and this system removes the smell completely.

Hi Mary, personally I am on city water and use my filter for final polishing and not primary filtering. I would suggest you have your well water analyzed then contact Aquasana's technical support and forward them your lab results and let them tell you if their filter system is capable of purifying your water to potable standards. Please be absolutely aware of chemical toxins and biological pathogens that your lab will be able to identify. On a final note depending on you geographical location, we need to also be concerned about radiological contamination. To some extent there is a filter that is capable of addressing that problem too. If need be, ask me about it and I will look it up for you. Hope this response is of some use.

I don't believe it will! I believe it is a taste and sediment filter only! As far as I know the filtration of microbes or bacteria is beyond this filters capability!

I put the sulfur in water and mixed it up as good as I could to dissolve it then poured it on the blueberries. Within a week the level came down to 4.5. I suggest add more sulfur than what is instructed. I used two cups per gallon of water.

It may very well be. I'm no chemist and years ago a plumber told me on the sly after having to enlist his services to clear our sewer line for the umpteenth time that copper sulfate would do the trick. He didn't tell me the amount to use and I was a C- chemistry student in school. He retired about that time and I went along calling "Roto-Rooter" until I found this stuff in a catalog and bought it. I have a bottle that I'm going to dump in my system for the six month dose and the label indicates it is 99% Copper sulfate pentahydrate and 1% "other ingredients". I have used it for years now and have never had to make a service call to have my line "snaked". I've stayed with it because it has worked for me all these years and also because my ignorance of chemistry keeps me from wanting to use an inappropriate dose of copper sulfate that might screw up the pipes leading to the sewer and cost a large out of pocket expense for repairs. I hope that's helpful. Good luck!

Yes, that is exactly my case I have water from a well, the filter works very good but the water is not been softened even when the supplier offer that.

I guess so. We bought it for a house that we sold. It helped us pass the water inspection that we previously failed. It took out the e coli and whatever else was in the well. We had a plummer hook it up which was an additional amount of $300

I am not sure. We have well water with a high iron/rust content and my hair is blonde. It does help remove the minerals and build up in my hair as well as leave it somewhat able to brush.

I'm not sure. I bought it to remove bacterial iron out of the well (filling a pool)... It didn't work for that.

Yes it will. Its a natural biocide. You can always add a biocide to the distilled water and also add the silver. You should be fine. Always replace water every year.
