Manganese SolutionsFix it with an all-natural, affordable solution from Kocher’s.
If your water smells like sulfur or rotten eggs, the culprits are usually hydrogen sulfide (H2S) or iron and sulfates.
Hydrogen sulfide is a naturally occurring mineral released from the earth that can seep into groundwater, especially in wells near shale, sandstone, coal, peat, or oil deposits.
Sometimes, a rotten-egg odor in your water may be due to a water heater issue or sewage contamination. For those on city water, the water heater is often the primary cause.
It’s crucial to get your water tested, as hydrogen sulfide poses significant health risks, including nausea, vomiting, and other serious health effects.
How to Resolve the Issue
Kocher’s offers affordable solutions based on the root cause of the odor. We provide free water testing to identify the source of the smell, with no obligation to purchase equipment. Our goal is to offer valuable information to help you make the best decision for your home and family.

Benefits of Kocher’s Drinking Water System:
Get Great Water At Every Tap with Whole Home Filtration
Your home is one of your most significant investments, and ensuring it runs smoothly requires attention to many small details. Kocher’s can help you take care of your water, so you can focus on your family.
Chlorine is essential for disinfecting municipal water, but it can be harsh on your skin and health. Over-the-counter chlorine filters for your shower and sink are limited and can become bacteria-laden.
Our Whole Home Chlorine Filter reduces chlorine throughout your entire home. It’s self-cleaning and low-maintenance, ensuring you never have to change another filter again.
Hard water leaves behind spots, scale, and cloudy glasses. Kocher’s offers a variety of hardness removal systems to keep your drinking glasses sparkling, your shower glass clear, and your skin and hair soft. With our systems, you’ll have more time to enjoy a bubble bath instead of scrubbing the tub.
Clean drinking water is crucial for health-conscious individuals. With water making up 70% of our bodies (and even more in babies and small children), ensuring it’s free of contaminants is essential. Kocher’s provides advanced filtration systems to remove harmful chemicals and contaminants from your drinking water, giving you peace of mind.
Hardness minerals like calcium and magnesium are continuously accumulating on everything your water touches. This affects your water heater, dishwasher, faucets, and even your skin.
Whether your water comes from a well or a city supply, most homes in the U.S. face hard water issues.
Many people are unaware that only ion exchange can reduce hardness minerals, which is the function of a water softener. Water filters are designed to remove other contaminants but not hardness minerals.
Kocher’s provides a superior range of water softeners tailored to fit your home, water quality, and budget. Our systems soften all the water entering your home, protecting your appliances and fixtures from damage.
Iron is a naturally occurring mineral commonly found in Pennsylvania water, and local residents have identified it as their top water concern in a recent poll.
Iron can exist in two forms: dissolved in water or as particles. Each type requires a different treatment approach, which is why a free in-home water test is essential to determine the best solution for your specific water issues.
Kocher’s offers affordable options to address both types of iron. We provide on-site water testing with fast and accurate results. There’s no obligation to purchase equipment from us; our goal is to offer valuable information to help you make the best decision for your home and family.
Some contaminants in water are obvious through smell, taste, or appearance. However, many harmful substances are undetectable without testing. Common waterborne contaminants include:
The Safe Drinking Water Act of 1974 regulates fewer than 100 contaminants, yet the EPA estimates there are around 60,000 chemicals in use in the US today, many of which can end up in our drinking water unregulated.
Our goal is to inform you about water quality issues. For more details about your tap water, visit the database at EWG.org.
To effectively reduce contaminants in your water by up to 99%, we offer high-quality Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water Filter systems, along with dedicated service and maintenance.

Arsenic is a common issue in Pennsylvania water, but it can be easily and affordably removed with an under-sink filter from Kocher’s.
According to the CDC, arsenic can enter the water supply from natural deposits in the earth or from industrial and agricultural pollution. Naturally occurring arsenic dissolves from certain rock formations when groundwater levels drop. Industries in the U.S. release thousands of pounds of arsenic into the environment yearly. Once released, arsenic remains in the environment for a long time, eventually entering groundwater through rain, snow, and settling. High arsenic levels in private wells may result from past use of arsenic-containing fertilizers, industrial waste, improper well construction, or overuse of chemical fertilizers or herbicides.
A simple water test can determine the presence and quantity of arsenic in your water. Kocher’s provides water testing and professional analysis of the results, guiding you on the best treatment options.
