    Yeah I suspect it is something benign but similar like that. Problem is that I really don’t know that I have a way to know for sure. And anecdotally, my recurrent stomach issues significantly reduced once I stopped drinking my tap water. Mine smells like pond water tho instead of garlic lol.

    No, it’s not my water heater. I had it replaced and the new heater smelled the exact same even when brand new before any possible sediment accumulation.

      A reverse osmosis system is probably your best bet. You can pour pond water in them and run lab tests with the results. Its basically distilled water though, so you want to make sure you get your minerals somewhere.
