Understanding Your Well Water

You can't always see, smell or taste them, but your water may have unwanted contaminants. Managing private well water to ensure it's clean and safe for you and your family can be challenging. This is because every well is unique, and what's in your well is different from what's in your neighbor's.

Well Water Basics

Unlike municipal water, well water isn't tested—unless you choose to have it done—and there aren't government regulations or criteria in place to ensure your home water meets your standards for quality or safety.

  • Home water can be contaminated by human activity and naturally occurring sources
  • You are responsible for your own water safety
  • Contaminants can infiltrate your well through groundwater movement, water seepage or runoff
  • Some contaminants could negatively affect your health

A Water Pro can speak to widespread contamination issues that are present in your community or geographic area.
