Hi Mohammad!
Welcome to SimplyDiscus !!

Can you tell us about your water...are you on a well? or municipal ?city water?

If well its possible you have sulfur in your water.You may not notice it at the level its at out of the tap but the RO waste water generally would concentrate that Sulfur so that may be what you are smelling.

yes my water is municipal!!
So, exactly what the reasons?

I would get in touch with your municipal water company. You may be able to access water reports from them on line. Water companies sometimes add various chemicals to buffer the water. .. it may be one of these. The source water they are sending you could also be high in sulfur. That its only the waste water that smells is a sign the ro water filter is working..

One suggestion is be sure you are running the Ro water with good quality carbon blocks installed. At the min. You should have 1 prefilter with polymaterial and 2 carbon blocks if you want to get good life and performance out of your ro membrane and Di resin.

What is the tds or uS of the water out of your filter? What is it from your tap?
