Let’s rip the Band-Aid off: smelling hydrogen sulfide gas all the time isn’t great. In very high concentrations, it can be toxic. But in your shower? We’re talking trace amounts. It’s more of a quality-of-life issue than a health crisis.
Think of it like a stinky cheese. It smells awful, but it won’t kill you. The real risk is if you have a gas leak (which smells like sulfur too!). So if the smell is constant and you also smell it near your furnace or stove, get out and call a pro. Otherwise, you’re just dealing with grumpy plumbing.
Trust your nose. If it burns your eyes or makes you dizzy, that’s a red flag. If it just makes you gag, it’s a Tuesday problem.
