    Default Re: Stinky Water

    We do not fill from a well but instead from city water. We will start to bring up the fc ppm to 20 and will also open up the filter. Is there a trick to opening the filter we have never done it before.

    I hope we done have a main drain leak. We have had lots of rain so I will wait for a dry spell but not sure where I would check the ground to be damp. Any thoughts here would be appreciate.

    I will share results once we start to get chlori e up.

    Thanks all for the insight!
