When bacteria show up as contamination in a water well, it indicates problems with the well construction or with the filtering soil or bedrock near where you draw your water.
Volatile organic compounds (VOC's) are chemical contaminants, most often man-made, that can be harmful to your health.
Many homeowners have questions about the quality of their water, whether they get their water from a private well or a public water system.
At an early age, we learn that the color of the water in our lakes, rivers and ponds is blue, but we expect the water in our drinking glass to be clear. When homeowners discover their home drinking water has a slight blue tint, it’s a cause for concern.
The U.S. Geological Survey is a government agency that collects data related to water sources around the country. A recent USGS study of randomly sampled private bedrock wells concluded that nearly one-fifth of them contain arsenic in concentrations greater than the maximum contamination level allowed for public water supplies. From this data, it can be assumed that approximately 41,000 in Hillsborough, Rockingham, and Strafford Counties have private wells that exceed that level. Private wells are not regulated in the state of New Hampshire and are subsequently seldom tested for arsenic, although it occurs naturally in the area. The State of New Hampshire does recommend individuals test for well water arsenic and other contaminants that affect human health.
