Whites Creek, TN | Davidson County | ZIP 37189
Why Does My Water Smell or Taste Off?
Direct answer: A rotten-egg smell at one faucet can be a drain or anode issue, while a smell at every hot tap points more to the water heater. A chlorine taste, metallic taste and musty taste each have different likely causes, and we check fixture by fixture before recommending a filter.
What this usually means
Symptoms rarely arrive alone. Check whether one fixture or the whole house is affected, whether the problem started suddenly or built up over weeks, and whether a bill, stain or smell changed at the same time. Those three clues narrow the cause faster than any single guess.
What you can check safely
- Shut-off valves for the affected fixture, if you can reach them safely
- Aerators and strainers for debris at a single slow fixture
- The water meter with fixtures off, if you suspect a hidden leak
- Cleanout access, if you know where it is and can reach it safely
When to call now
Call now if water is spreading, a sewer is backing up, there is no water to the house, or you smell gas. For gas, leave the house and call from outside. For other problems, note the symptoms above and call during business hours for a same-day visit when you call early.
