Geological Location
The geological location of Grand County, Colorado, creates a unique signature for water quality contaminants.
Water dissolves everything it touches in the aquifer; the rocks that your well is drilled into dictates the contaminants that are present in your home’s water.
Grand County, Colorado, covers a large area and there are distinct regions with water quality challenges that cause a wide range of water issues in homes and businesses that can be solved with customized filtration and water treatment systems.
Contaminants that are common in Grand County well water include: Suspended Solids (Turbidity,) Dissolved Solids (TDS,) Calcium, Magnesium, Iron, Manganese, Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S,) Aluminum, Arsenic, Chromium, Chloride, Copper, Fluoride, Nitrate, Nitrite, Silica, Uranium, Radium, Coliform Bacteria, E-coli Bacteria, Slime Forming Bacteria (SFB,) Iron Related Bacteria (IRB,) and Sulfate Reducing Bacteria (SRB).
Common equipment used to treat Grand County Colorado well water includes multi-stage Sediment filtration, Water Softener, Descale Media, pH Correction, Catalytic Carbon, Ozonation, Oxidation, Chlorination, Cation Exchange, Anion Exchange, Ultraviolet Light, and Reverse Osmosis.
Unbalanced pH in well water may cause a chain reaction of corrosion or metal leaching in the home’s plumbing system and can be addressed at the point of entry. Discoloration of piping, pinhole leaks, blue / green staining at the drain, can all be indications of corrosive water.
Iron, Manganese, and Hydrogen Sulfide are present in multiple areas of Grand County, Colorado, and can cause very real issues to the fixtures, metals, and occupants of the house. The levels at which these contaminants enter the house from the well dictate what level of treatment is required. Low levels may cause the same problems that high levels create over time.
Homes in Grand County, Colorado, that are supplied by municipal water often require further treatment to address EPA secondary contaminants such as Hardness and Iron. There can be a great benefit to filtering the incoming water at the point of entry and then installing a Reverse Osmosis system at the kitchen sink for drinking and cooking water.
