Well Maintenance: Water Treatment

Please note that not all well water needs or has treatment. However, if you have treatment currently installed, you should make every effort to maintain it properly. Check with your treatment system’s manufacturer or the company that installed them for the maintenance schedule. If you do not have treatment, we highly recommend that you test your water first to determine if it is necessary. Water test results also help to determine the best system(s) for your water quality. Before selecting and installing treatment, discuss your results and concerns with a water treatment professional in your area.

To locate a water treatment professional visit Water Quality Association’s (WQA) website.

Water treatment should be certified by either NSF or WQA when available. Water testing after treatment is installed is equally important to confirm the effectiveness of the system(s).
