Drinking Water Treatment
If your home water comes from a public water supply, it has been tested and meets EPA standards for drinking
water. If you use a private well, however, you are responsible for assuring that the water is safe to drink. This
means that you should periodically have your water tested, make sure your well is in proper condition without
faulty well caps or seals, and identify and remove potential sources of contamination to your well such as leaking
septic systems or surface contamination.

With a private well, you are also responsible for any treatment your water may need if it contains harmful pollutants
or contaminants that affect the taste, odor, corrosiveness or hardness of the water. This fact sheet discusses
different types of water treatment systems available to homeowners. Addressing the source of the problem is
often less costly in the long run than installing and maintaining a water system. For more information on identifying
pollutant sources, problems with your well, or help in testing your well water, see the references at the end
of this fact sheet.
There are many types of water treatment systems available. No one type of treatment can address every water
quality problem, so make sure you purchase the type of equipment that can effectively treat your particular water
quality issue. The table below can help direct you to the right solution for your problem.
