Water Treatment for Ontario Wells
Ontario well water comes from San Bernardino alluvial fan deposits, which creates specific water quality challenges that require targeted treatment solutions.
What's in Ontario Well Water?
- Hardness: 12-20 grains — causes scale buildup, soap scum, appliance damage
- TDS: 450-900 ppm — affects taste and indicates mineral content
- Common contaminants: hard water (12-20 grains), nitrates, industrial contamination concerns
Recommended Treatment Systems for Ontario
Water Softener (Essential)
With 12-20 grains hardness, a softener is critical for Ontario homes. Benefits:
- Eliminates scale buildup on fixtures, water heater, appliances
- Softer skin and hair, better soap lathering
- Extends lifespan of well pump and plumbing
- Reduces water heater energy costs by 25-30%
Reverse Osmosis (RO) System
With TDS levels up to 900 ppm in Ontario, an RO system provides:
- Ultra-pure drinking water (removes 95-99% of dissolved solids)
- Better taste (removes minerals, sulfates, nitrates)
- Typically installed under kitchen sink
System Sizing for Ontario Wells
Your well produces 10-30 GPM. We size treatment systems based on:
- Well flow rate (10-30 GPM)
- Household size and peak demand
- Specific contaminants in your water test
- Water usage patterns (irrigation, livestock, residential)
Neighborhoods We Serve in Ontario
North Ontario, South Ontario, Airport area, Euclid Avenue corridor, Cucamonga area — each area has slightly different water quality based on local geology.
Why Ontario Needs Treatment
Large Inland Empire city. Ontario International Airport. Major industrial and logistics hub. Mostly on municipal water but some industrial/agricultural wells remain. Good alluvial fan yields.
This geological and geographic context means Ontario wells commonly require treatment for: hard water (12-20 grains), nitrates, industrial contamination concerns.
