Water Problems in Wellington, Loxahatchee and The Acreage

Western Palm Beach County is a special place to live, with room to breathe, horse country and big properties. It also has some of the toughest water in the area, especially for homes on private wells.

Why water here is different

Many homes in Loxahatchee, The Acreage and parts of Wellington rely on private wells rather than city water. Groundwater here often carries iron and sulfur, and it is frequently hard. Large properties with irrigation and barns can use a lot of water, which puts more demand on treatment equipment.

The most common problems we see

• Orange stains on fixtures, walls, fences and driveways from iron. See iron and orange staining.

• A rotten egg smell from sulfur. See sulfur and rotten egg smell.

• Spots and scale from hard water. See hard water treatment.

• Low pressure or no water from aging well pumps. See pump repair and replacement.

Wellington city water vs. private wells

Homes on Wellington's utility water have different concerns than homes on wells, such as hardness and taste. Well owners usually face iron and sulfur too. The fix depends on which water you have.
