Well water contamination
Private wells in Riverside, San Bernardino, and IE often carry iron, arsenic, and bacteria not tested by any utility.
Riverside County wells commonly test for iron (0.3 to 4 ppm), which stains laundry and fixtures. San Bernardino basin wells have documented arsenic near 3 ppb and uranium at 8 pCi/L in some ZIP codes. Bacteria, nitrate from septic intrusion, and hydrogen sulfide (rotten-egg odor) are routine findings. California requires well testing at sale but not on an ongoing basis, so most well owners have no idea what their water contains year to year.

Well water contamination, briefly.
Groundwater pulled from private or shared aquifers. Unlike municipal water, private wells have no utility responsible for monitoring or treating what comes out of the tap. Contaminant levels depend on local geology, nearby land use, and well depth.
We run a comprehensive well-water field panel in your kitchen: iron, manganese, hardness, pH, TDS, hydrogen sulfide, bacteria indicator, and nitrate. The sample goes to an independent lab for arsenic, uranium, and full metals. We size the treatment stack to your actual results: air-injection iron oxidizer, sediment pre-filter, softener, RO drinking stage, and UV disinfection where bacteria indicators are present.
