Tap water has an odor when something is added to it (crystal light, pop and icecubes)? What is the cause?


Question:Ground/Well Water.
Koolaide, Crystal Light mixures make the water smell weird although the water on its own smells and tastes very good.

Help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Answers:
Hopefully the well isn't contaminated...or the pipes...but they might be. Start by taking a sample of the water to your County Health Department to have it analyzed. In the meantime, boil your water or use a bottled water supplier. I've been through a break in the well lines once and it was horrible. The end result was that we needed to drill a new well because my dad let it go too long. That was a $7000 oops that could have been prevented by fixing the damaged pipe before the well grew nasty whatnots.
