It can be easily filtered out.

Depending on the levels of hydrogen sulfide you have in the water, sometimes a simple carbon activated filter can remove the smell and last quite a while if the levels are low enough.

In any instance it would be wise to take water samples and have your levels measured professionally to determine what size and type of filtration would be required.

Pretty easy to take care of.

Good luck!
