I have 3 bathrooms and only 1 bathroom has an odor like sulfur coming out when the hot and cold water is turned on. I poured the water into a cup and left the room and I did not smell any type of odor. The kitchen and the other bathrooms are free from odor. Can anyone help me to resolve this smell? I am on well and septic. All of the bathrooms are on the same floor. The main feed for water is in copper all the way to the shut off valve under the sink. The connection is made with PVC and the faucet is a Moen. I have up-fitted basement and added a bath- not in use until this odor issue is resolved. Thank You!

1 bathroom has an odor like sulfur coming out when the hot and cold water is turned on.More details please. Is this just one tap that smells? Which one? If this is the lavatory tap then remove the aerator and run the water. If the smell's gone chances you have got bacteria in the aerator, Soak it in bleach and seem if that don't stop the odor. Good luck, Tom
