I had this problem at my house, I wrote this for another thread:

I suggest that you use a name brand like Culligan. I'm a cheapskate but water systems need to work for a long time and you need parts for a long time.

We have an Iron Cleer system in our house to remove the H2S. There were two choices at the time, chlorine or this system. A chlorine system is much cheaper but you have to buy and fill chlorine. Plus one of the joys of well water is avoiding the city water chlorine taste.

The magic beads in my Iron Cleer system were just replaced after 13 years of trouble free operation. Other than the timer losing it's place during power outages, we never had any issues.
