Another non plumber novice thing I do is I had to replace a few Moen faucet cartridges yesterday
and instead of turning the never used in 25 years under the sink cut off valves I just turned off the main.
Plus, I didn't have to crawl up under the sink. Yes, I know but I wasn't looking for another fiasco that day.

I had an insect crawl in the switch and roast itself, buggered the contact and I had to clean it out.
Ive also had a faulty switch.
Nice. Looks like a softener and maybe a calcite filter and a UV Setup.
I'm surprised you don't have at least a single stage sediment filter after the pressure tank.
Softener resin media lasts a long time, but sediment can foul it and reduce its life and effectiveness.
Not much sediment or sand in the well
But still very nice to have
Above is as you say except air injection for oxidation of sulfides not calcite
I had the screw holding the power wire on my air compressor pressure switch loosen a bit and it burned things on the pressure switch for that leg of 220V. Wire nutted that leg together and now only switch off one leg of 220V.
A similar thing could happen on a water pump.

I forgot to update this thread. That burning smell was gassing me out of my shop which is a converted bi-level house.
The cause...it drove me nuts until I literally checked every square inch.
The Cause
The living room has a sliding door leading to a deck. Along the bottom track of the sliding door it is carpet. It has been burned away by 24 years of being there. Those areas never got much use at all and the carpet edge has been disintegrated off the metal channel by a 1/2 inch.... that is the cause of the smell when the sun comes out it cranks up the smell.
Maybe this will help someone... hope so.
I'm redoing the house in all LVP.

Had the dog been peeing over there? Pot smokers? I don't get the burnt hide connection.

Thanks Walt
It was in a non use area and the long blind was always closed. I should get a picture tomorrow of how bad it was.
You would swear your oil heater was about to go.

No dog and nobody ever lived here. I used it for my machinery and shipping center. I don't drink or smoke and come on..lol
The glass heated the metal channel putting heat on the carpet..
Causing it to burn and outgass

Now look what the glass and metal did to the carpet. It's beige but I brightened it up to see.
It smells burnt too. I never use the door and the blind hid the area completely

Yes actual burns all along the bottom and if I touch it the carpet crumbles into powder. The back of the blinds look new but are white and I guess it intensified the heat too

I hope this helps someone else as that was the last place I looked. The carpet had little use but couldn't handle the heat.
