How can you eliminate a hydrogen sulfide odor in the water from a new hot water heater even after the anode has been replaced with an aluminum one?
You need to replace the aluminum anode with a zinc/aluminum alloy anode.ANS 2 - If a hydrogen sulfide (or rotten egg) odour exists around your water, it's often an indicator of excess iron in the water supply. This can be bad for your plumbing. I would advise taking a water sample(in a sterilised bottle) to a lab and have it analysed. If the iron content is very high you may well have to fit a softener or an iron filter.BTW - changing the anode is an excellent idea anyway. Just may not be the solution.
Why is my boiler water orange?
It could be that the pipes and boiler is showing iron rust and corrosion.
Types of iron?
There are three types of Iron 1. Pig Iron 2. Cast Iron 3. Wrought Iron (Commercially purest form of iron)
What is free carbon in cast iron?
Free carbon in cast iron refers to carbon that exists in its elemental form within the iron matrix. It appears as graphite flakes or nodules, contributing to the material's unique properties, such as high fluidity during casting and improved machinability. This free carbon distinguishes cast iron from other metals.
Is iron durable?
pure iron rusts too rapidly and crumbles, however many iron alloys can be very durable. Iron is a pretty cool element, though, still.
Is there iron content in dates?
Dates have an iron content of 1.15 mg per 100 grams of dates on average. The USRDA (US recommended daily allowance) of iron is 18mg (27mg during pregnancy). Dates are a significant source of iron.
Hard water refers to?
Iron in the water. Often called that when the content of iron is too much for one to tolerate.
Is the heat content of equal mass of water and iron same?
No.
Iron content of tapwater in hull?
According to the Yorkshire Water website there is approximately 8.49 micrograms of iron per litre of water.
Can well water damage a propane hot water heater?
Only if it has a very high iron content.
Can rusting of iron occur in distilled water?
Yes, rusting of iron occurs in distilled water. In fact, the rusting is faster since, the ionic content in distilled water is lesser.
Why not black pipes for water?
Black pipes are made of iron, which means that they will easily rust. Additionally, the iron will leach into the water, contributing to its mineral content and hardness.
Does water with high iron content cause stainless steel fittings to rust?
Good quality stainless steel should never rust. I have noticed that the high iron content in our water causes red particles of iron oxide to remain on stainless steel vessels - and it looks exactly like rust but its just the iron in the water drying out on the stainless steel.
Can you clean the steam iron's reservoir using the cleaner CLR?
no - not recommended. It can damage interior of iron. Use equal parts water & vinegar
Can rusting take place in distilled water?
distilled water is pure and dosent have iron content in it so it dosent rusts
Can rusting of iron occur in distelled water?
yes,rusting of iron can occur in distilled water.In fact it occur even very fast because ionic content in distilled water is very less.So,rusting of iron occur in distilled water.
