Well water treatment for Bucks County homes.

Thousands of Bucks County homes, especially in Upper Bucks and the rural parts of Central Bucks, get their water from private wells drilled into shale, sandstone and diabase bedrock. Well water here commonly carries hardness, iron, manganese and low pH. Some wells also show bacteria, radon or arsenic.

Every well is different, even between neighbors. So we start with a test, explain the results in plain English, and design a system around your well. That could be one tank or a full treatment train.

Signs your well needs treatment

• Orange, brown or black stains in sinks, tubs and toilets
• Rotten-egg (sulfur) smell, especially from hot water
• Blue-green stains (a sign of acidic, low-pH water)
• Cloudy or gritty water and clogged aerators
• A failed bacteria test during a home sale
• A metallic taste

How it works

1. We test for iron, manganese, pH, hardness and sulfur on site.
2. We recommend certified lab tests for bacteria, arsenic, nitrate, radon or PFAS when warranted.
3. We design a system: iron and sulfur filter, acid neutralizer, softener and/or UV disinfection.
4. We install, start up and re-test, then set you up with simple maintenance.

What's included

• Air-injection or catalytic iron and sulfur filter (as needed)
• Calcite acid neutralizer for low-pH water (as needed)
• UV disinfection for bacteria (as needed)
• Sediment filtration
• Water softener for hardness (as needed)
• Re-test after install

Well Water Treatment across Bucks County

Upper Bucks townships like Tinicum, Nockamixon, Bridgeton, Durham, Haycock, Springfield, Bedminster, Plumstead, Hilltown and Milford are mostly well country. The bedrock of the Newark Basin there is known for wells with iron, manganese and, in some places, naturally occurring arsenic and radon. Testing is the only way to know.
