@jb0579 If it smells like natural gas, it just might be. Your best bet might be to have a local lab test a sample of the water to give you an indication of what minerals and or gases might be present. If you live on the edge of a swamp, you might be getting traces of ground water in your well and that could be due to a number of things, but primarily I'd think it would be a lack of grout around your surface casing. Hope this helps. - Tommy @ Fletcher Drilling, Inc. Colorado

I'd like to hear more about what to do if your well is 200+ feet deep, and your water is potable, but smells. As opposed to the normal rotten-egg smell common in many peoples' wells, mine smells of natural gas. I live on the edge of a cedar swamp on a lake in northern MN, & my neighbor & I share a 2yr old well. We have stinky water. They have put the bleach pellets in twice, helps for 3 months, smell returns. If anyone has ideas or knows how to get ridda the smell, PLEASE HELP!
