: : Our water started to have an odor about a week ago. At first it only smelled in the hot water, now its beginning to smell in the cold water. Don't know what is making this foul smell. Have any ideas? : : Thanks : : Bridgette : Bridgette sometimes a sulfer odor will come from the hotside of your pipes due to the build up of minerals in the hot water heater tank.But this usually occurs when the tank is old and idle over a period of time. It could be the same problem is occuring through your cold water pipe coming from the city supply.A whole house filter may solve your problem.You need a plumber to come out and trouble shoot this problem Thankyou for your input. We have a well we are not on city water. Thanks again, Bridgette
