Find out how to fix this problem, quick–with the help of your friendly Culligan Man
Usually, if your water smells like sulfur or rotten eggs, the reason is because your water has high Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) content.
H2S is a gas that is released from the earth and finds its way into groundwater. It’s especially common in well water located near shale, sandstone, coal, peat, or oil.
(Occasionally, a rotten-egg smell in your water could also be caused by a water heater or by sewage pollution in your water. If you’re on city water, the most likely explanation is your water heater.)
Negative Effects of H2S
In addition to potential health risks, having H2S in your water can cause all sorts of annoying problems. H2S in your water can:
- Cause coffee and tea to be discolored and taste funny
- Corrode metals (steel, copper, iron, brass), including silverware
- Cause foods cooked with water to taste “off”
- Create yellow or black stains in your bathroom and kitchen
How Do You Fix It?
At Culligan, you can find everything you need to get rid of H2S and that sulfur/rotten-egg smell from your water.
The first step we have to take is to test your water, so we can be sure of the real cause of the rotten-egg smell.
Fortunately, at Culligan we offer this service free. One of our water experts will come to your home to test the water (you can’t send it away to a laboratory because H2S is a gas and could dissipate during transport) and let you know the source of your rotten-egg smell. You’re under no obligation whatsoever.

I fully endorse this company and their products. Specifically their sales representative Forrest. He performed a thorough assessment of my water and sold me exactly what I needed, nothing extra. The installation tech came out and did his job quickly and professionally. Most of all after buying this product, the dishes are now spotless and clear. No more cloudiness residue from the dishwasher or having to pre-scrub all the dishes. Also, my dishes finally get dry in the dishwasher as well. I used to have to dry to put in cabinets, this is a huge timesaver. Lastly, the soap that comes with the system is great. Nice smelling, good cleaning and makes you feel cleaner after a shower. I will never have a house without one again. I would definitely recommend this product to all friends and family. Thanks Culligan!!!!

We have had a Colligan’s water softener for 9 years now and like it very much! The service is also excellent. As part of the premium service, they deliver the salt in a timely way every 3 months and check the overall status of the softener. The technicians are always courteous and proactively make any minor repairs during their visits (even when we did not notice it). We would definitely recommend Culligan softeners and services to house owners in Houston!

What an AMAZING difference this system has made in my life. It's important to have clean and safe water in your home. We spend so much time at home now, with a CULLIGAN whole house filtration system you can seriously tell the difference! Thank you so much Crystal in Sales, and a big thank you to Nathan in Quality Control, who came to my home to do a quality check on my system, six months after purchase, here in Stafford Texas. He made sure all my numbers were spot on with my water. I'm so glad that I chose Culligan, they back up their system, and my water doesn't stink anymore! Don't think twice about working with Culligan, I'm very glad that I did. Keep up the great work Team Culligan!

I like the ideal of having fresh drinking water at your fingertips. I don't have to get out in the traffic or grocery lines now for water. My little ones can depend on that. It was easy to start and get setup. What I don't like, as a new customer, is that I'm told I will get a delivery to my home and NOBODY SHOWS UP OR CALL ME so I go to the store to get water. Unreliable. I am forgiving...once or twice.

We were Culligan customers in Kerrville, so we knew what we wanted for our drinking water when we moved here. Easy to rent our Culligan system for pure drinking water without hauling heavy bottles. Installation went well and follow up maintenance was quick and professional. We would definitely recommend.

We love our Culligan system. I know they say water has no taste, but wait until you taste the difference of water with all the chemicals removed. Our installer was professional and explained everything to us. Culligan called us 6 months after to schedule our new filter replacement. It really is a system that you purchase and Culligan takes care of the rest for you, you simply sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labors.

The water tastes fresh/good. We have been on service for over a decade. Our driver is amazing and waits for me to get my empty bottles when I forget from time to time even though the send me reminders. The customer service is excellent and very consistent and this is why I stay with them.

We had a whole house water system and RO system installed in 2017 and have been very happy with it. We chose the Culligan System because it was highly recommended for well water systems. The installation process was easy and our Culligan rep, Yaser Arshouk answered all our questions completely. We knew it was working when we saw 15 years of sediment naturally cleared from our water pipes once it was in place. We love that our salt is delivered and the system regularly checked by Culligan. Our Culligan rep, Joe Nguyen just did a water check and it's still working wonderfully after three years. Would definitely recommend Culligan of Houston to anyone looking for a whole house water treatment system.

Culligan takes care of our system on a regular basis -- we do not need to remind them to come -- they take care of everything automatically & and according to their schedule for our house -- having the Culligan treatment for our water has been excellent -- have used Culligan for about 20+ years

The price is very competitive compared to other products / suppliers. Culligan is a reputable dealer in the area for many decades. I very much like Culligan's customer service over another vendor I already met with. With Culligan, there was a no pressure water testing / sales pitch. The sales meeting was geared to my desire to quickly talk about testing levels and pricing. I did not need the whole song and dance. I appreciated that. I previously requested a quote from another vendor, who was at my home over 2 hours for their sales pitch, and came in at a much higher price even with incentives and discounts. While that vendor's salesman was very courteous, his sales supervisor would not take "not ready to commit" as an answer over the phone. It became very awkward for the that vendor's salesman and myself. Zaid at Culligan was very courteous, very thorough and efficient. He respectfully highlighted the differences between the two vendors, products and pricing. Again, no pressure sales. I decided on Culligan for their experience, product, maintenance program and pricing. The two gentlemen who installed the system were very professional and communicative throughout the process. They worked diligently in the heat of the day to complete the install. I did not expect, but very much appreciated, the follow up by Kay to test water levels after installation. She was very friendly, thorough and organized with next steps and follow ups. So far, I am very impressed with the entire process, and glad I chose Culligan.

I received a bill that shows the addition of a "property Tax Assessment" without advance notice or explanation. That was unsettling. However, I am happy to report that Culligan has taken steps to fix the billing problem and the issue has been quickly resolved. I love my soft water.
