Drinking Water Quality in Citrus County, FL
Is your drinking water as safe and clean as it should be? Here's what Citrus County homeowners need to know.
Common Drinking Water Concerns in Citrus County
Hardness
Citrus County water is very hard — 15–25+ GPG. While not a health risk, it affects taste and damages appliances.
Iron
High iron levels in well water cause metallic taste and orange staining. Iron removal systems address this.
Hydrogen sulfide
The rotten egg smell from H2S is common in Florida well water. Air injection systems eliminate it.
Chlorine (city water)
Municipal water is treated with chlorine, which affects taste and odor. Carbon filtration removes it.
Nitrates
Agricultural areas can have elevated nitrates in well water — a concern for infants. RO systems remove nitrates effectively.
Bacteria
Well water can be contaminated with bacteria. Annual testing and UV disinfection provide protection.
