This very unpleasant smell can be the result of high levels of hydrogen sulfide in the water. Hydrogen sulfide is a corrosive gas that can affect the taste of your food and accelerate corrosion on metal faucets and plumbing.

Chlorine Taste
Chlorine is a popular disinfectant used by most municipal water treatment facilities in the United States. Although chlorine is an efficient way to kill harmful bacteria, it does have a few drawbacks.
Not only does it taste and smell bad, it can dry your skin, fade your clothing, and dry out rubber seals in your appliances.

Earthy, Fishy Taste or Smell
Microorganisms and other bacteria can thrive in moist and dark environments, including water fixtures, causing this unpleasant taste and smell. These contaminants can survive for months in water, fixtures or plumbing.

Hardness
Hard water is the result of a combination of dissolved calcium and magnesium. These minerals cause soap scum and water spots on water fixtures, and can greatly shorten the lifespan of common appliances.
Hard water frequently necessitates 20-30% more energy to heat water, and 3-4 times more soap and detergent for cleaning and laundry.

Corrosion
Acidic water, characterized by a low pH, will cause corrosion of metallic plumbing fixtures and piping.
Another common symptom of acidic water is blue-green staining of fixtures and laundry with copper plumbing systems.
