Is Banning well water safe to drink?

Most Banning well water is safe to drink, though water quality varies by location. Some wells in the pass area have naturally occurring minerals or slightly elevated TDS levels. We recommend water testing for all new wells and periodic testing for existing wells. Treatment systems can address most water quality concerns.

Why do wells in Banning have sand problems?

Sand intrusion in Banning wells often results from the alluvial geology of the San Gorgonio Pass. The aquifer contains layers of sand and gravel that can enter wells with deteriorating screens or improper construction. Proper well design with appropriate screen sizing and sand separators can prevent this issue.
