Does your water taste like someone put a few drops of vinegar in it? Or does your bathroom smell like a swimming pool when you fill the tub for a bath? If you’re on city water, your water is treated at the water treatment plant before it makes it to you. If you have well water, it’s up to you to make sure your water is always safe to drink. Either way, there can still be problems with your water. At Morris-Jenkins, we offer water quality testing in Mount Holly.
Does your water have a whiff of chlorine, metal, or rotten eggs? These smells could mean chemical imbalances, bacteria, or too many minerals.
If your water looks murky, amber, or brown, it might be carrying sediment, iron, or rust from corroded pipes.
Seen a white film on your faucets or dishes? Hard water leaves minerals that can shorten the lifespan of your appliances.
High mineral levels in your water can cause dry skin, brittle hair, and might even lead to itching or discomfort after a shower.
Minerals in your water can lead to plumbing issues and pipe corrosion, causing dry skin and brittle hair.
Whenever you book a plumbing diagnostic or repair in Mount Holly, we can do a basic water quality test for FREE! This test checks chlorine levels and other key factors to give you an idea of your water’s condition. Looking for something more detailed? We offer photometer testing, which examines the ten most important water quality parameters. Our team will grab a water sample and use our in-office lab gear for a thorough analysis. The next day, we'll get in touch to explain your results and discuss options to boost your water quality in your Mount Holly home.
You've probably heard about chlorine's role in killing germs in your local swimming pool, but why would it be in your home's water supply? The answer is simple - for the same reason! City water systems often add chlorine to kill bacteria and other harmful microorganisms, making your water drinkable. While this is helpful, too much chlorine can make your water smell or taste bad - and no one wants that. Checking for chlorine levels makes sure your water has the right balance: enough to keep it safe but not so much that it causes skin irritation, hair dryness, or gives your morning coffee a weird taste.
Vitamins and minerals—we've all had our doctors remind us of their importance for our health since we were kids. But when it comes to your water, minerals like calcium and magnesium can sometimes cause more trouble than they're worth. These minerals are naturally found in many water sources and can lead to what's known as "hard water." Hard water isn't harmful to drink, but it can wreak havoc on your plumbing and appliances. It causes limescale buildup in your pipes, water heater, and even on your dishes, which can make your home less efficient and raise your energy bills. Plus, it can leave your skin and hair feeling dry and dull after a shower.
The goal here is to find a balance, not too high, not too low. pH levels measure how acidic or alkaline your water is. Water that's too acidic (low pH) can eat away at your pipes and fixtures, possibly letting dangerous metals like lead seep into your water supply. On the other hand, water that's too alkaline (high pH) can cause mineral deposits and give your water a strange taste. If your pH levels are off, we can suggest treatments to balance them, keeping your plumbing in great shape and your water tasting just right.
It's normal to worry about pollutants getting into your water supply. We've all been there, as we all want our loved ones to have the cleanest water possible. But, try to relax and remember that not every contaminant is harmful. Some, like minerals or chlorine, might change the taste or texture of your water, but they're not dangerous in small amounts. The key is knowing what's in your water. Regular water quality testing in Mount Holly helps spot any potential issues, so you don't have to guess or stress. If something concerning is found, Morris-Jenkins is ready to help. We'll walk you through the findings and suggest ways to make sure your water is as clean and safe as possible for your family.
