Owning a private well means having complete control over your home’s water supply — but it also means full responsibility for its safety. Poor well water quality can pose serious health risks, from bacteria and heavy metals to excessive minerals and contaminants.
Unlike city water, which is regularly tested and treated, well owners must ensure their water is safe to drink. That’s where American Water comes in. Our expert team provides well water quality testing and customized filtration recommendations to help keep your water clean, clear and safe.
