Well Water Safety and Treatment: Protecting Public Health

Did you know that as of 2022, a staggering thirteen million people in the United States rely on private groundwater wells for their water supply? That’s a significant number, and it means that unlike public drinking water sources regulated by the EPA, these privately owned wells need more personal oversight. This means well owners like you are responsible for ensuring their water is free from contaminants, which may lead to illness if consumed.

Groundwater pollution, a significant risk, can originate from various sources such as landfills, septic tanks, fuel tanks, fertilizers, pesticides, and urban runoff. Given this, regular evaluation of the water quality in private wells is not just important but crucial. Since private well water customers do not pay a water utility bill, they commonly invest in appropriate water treatment equipment.

Why We Always Recommend A Water Test As The First Step For Well Water Owners

Well water treatment serves various purposes, including removing specific contaminants and enhancing the taste or smell of your water. This becomes particularly important for households with members that have compromised immune systems, like the ill, elderly, or infants. 

Well water contamination can occur through naturally occurring chemicals like arsenic, manganese, or iron and local land use practices such as fertilization, pesticide use, and animal waste. Malfunctioning wastewater treatment systems, sewer overflows, runoff, and failing septic tanks may also contribute to contamination.

Contaminants in well water can lead to serious health issues such as gastrointestinal illness, reproductive problems, and neurological disorders. Regular monitoring and treatment of well water are not just important but essential to safeguard public health.

At Kind Water Systems, we take our responsibility as water experts seriously. To ensure we provide the best solution for your family, we must conduct a comprehensive water test and survey of your well. This way, we can understand your water’s characteristics and unique water-related concerns before recommending a customized solution.

Common Sources of Groundwater Pollution in Wells Infographic

Why is it essential for a homeowner on well water to utilize a combination of water treatment technologies to ensure safe water for their family?

Due to the diverse impurities in well water, homeowners must utilize a combination of water treatment technologies to ensure safe water for their families. Each type of impurity above requires a unique treatment method.

Combining treatments allows simultaneous addressing of multiple contaminants, ensuring comprehensive water quality improvement. For instance, while activated carbon filtration effectively removes organic compounds, it may not eliminate microorganisms or dissolved minerals. Combining treatments creates a multi-barrier approach, increasing the likelihood of removing a broad spectrum of contaminants and providing assurance of safe drinking water.

Well Water Products

Microorganisms can infiltrate private wells due to various factors, leading to fluctuating contamination levels over time.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), bacterial contamination is common, with about 15% to 20% of private wells nationwide testing positive for total coliform bacteria annually. Sources of contamination include surface runoff, septic system failures, and ingress of contaminated groundwater.

Well-owners should regularly test for bacterial contamination and undertake appropriate maintenance measures to mitigate risks. The EPA recommends testing wells for coliform bacteria at least once a year and after any maintenance or repair work. Based on this data and EPA guidance, Kind Water strongly recommends installing an Ultraviolet Disinfection System for all private well water applications.

Great investment at a reasonable price!

It didn’t take long after having our water system installed that we could definitely see a difference in our shower, appliance performance (coffee maker and dishwasher) and taste of the water. Great investment at a reasonable price!

All Kind systems are made with certified components and designed for peak performance. Cities and Municipalities often vary the amount of chemicals they introduce into your water throughout the year and in doing so it can affect the longevity of your filter. Replacing your filters once a year ensures that your system is operating at peak performance at all times.

The Kind filters also utilize a Catalytic Activated Coconut Shell Carbon Block technology giving the best filtration possible without the carbon dust, channeling, and flow issues associated with loose granular coal base carbon found in traditional tank-style filters. Simply put, whole-house water filtration has evolved and so has the way you filter your water.
