Common Contaminants Found in Western NY Well Water

Every well is different, but our testing frequently uncovers one or more of these issues:

  • Iron – Causes reddish-brown stains on sinks, tubs, and laundry.
  • Sulfur – Produces a strong “rotten egg” odor in water.
  • Hard Water Minerals – Build up in pipes and appliances, reducing efficiency and causing damage.
  • Bacteria – Can make water unsafe for drinking and cooking.
  • Nitrates – Often from agricultural runoff after heavy rainfall or flooding.

Testing helps pinpoint exactly what’s in your water so we can recommend the right solution, whether that’s iron and sulfur removal, water softener repair, or a whole-home filtration system.

  • Have your well water tested every few years.

  • Do not use your well water for irrigation if there is a risk of contamination.
  • Store your well water in clean, sealed containers.

If your water has a metallic taste, orange or brown stains in toilets or sinks, or a rotten egg smell, it may contain iron or sulfur. A professional water test can confirm the exact levels and type of contamination in your well water.

The EPA recommends testing private well water at least once per year for contaminants like bacteria, nitrates, iron, and sulfur. You should also test after heavy rain, flooding, or if you notice changes in taste, smell, or staining.

Orange rings or stains in your toilet are often caused by oxidized iron in your water. As iron-rich water sits in the bowl, it reacts with oxygen and leaves behind rust-colored residue—especially common with untreated well water.

The best filter depends on the type and level of iron present. Watercure USA typically recommends oxidizing filters, iron-specific filtration media, or a combination system with softening to remove both iron and other minerals. A free water test will help determine the right solution.

Absolutely. Many contaminants have no taste, smell, or visible signs. The only way to confirm your water is safe is through professional testing.
