Click on each image below to learn more about these problems with well water, and how to solve them:

Hard Water

Hard water has high levels of calcium, magnesium, and other minerals. Though this water problem isn’t hazardous towards your health, it provides some unwanted side effects.

Hard water makes it hard to clean dishes, clothes, and even yourself. One of the most notable signs you have hard water is that you’ll notice white spots on clean glasses, coffee pots, and other items. The white spots are left behind by the calcium.

Furthermore, using hard water will lead to clogged pipes, shower heads, and other fixtures.

Iron

There will be some clear signs when you have high amounts of iron in your water. You’ll notice that fixtures such as your sinks and showers will have brown or yellow stains, your white clothes have a yellow tint, and your water and food will taste metallic.

This can also lead to pipe clogging and some health concerns.

Bad Odor/Taste

Unfortunately, there are several potential causes for your water to smell or taste bad. Our well water testing services for the Eastern Shore of MD & all of DE will identify the cause of the issue. Our trusted professionals will offer the proper well water treatment services and products necessary.

Nitrates

Since nitrates are odorless and colorless, they are difficult to detect without a professional test. Nitrates are most common in shallow wells that are near septic systems, farmland, and animal feeding lots. It is important to test for nitrates because they may pose a threat to your family’s health, especially if there is a pregnant woman, infant, or elderly person in your home. Nitrates should always be <10 ppm.

Acidic Water

Acidic water has a pH less than 7.0. Many Delmarva wells are not very deep, so the groundwater doesn't pass through a sufficient amount of minerals (limestone) to become naturally neutralized.

Other Contaminants

Due to our sandy soil, there are a lot of contaminants such as lead, arsenic, and VOC’s that don’t naturally filter out before reaching our water wells. At Delmarva Water Solutions, our well water testing services will identify what is causing your water issues and make the proper recommendations to treat them.
