Water Filtration Services in Bedford, New Hampshire

Bedford is one of the most well-documented high-arsenic zones for private wells in the entire state. The town sits on the same granite bedrock that runs through Amherst, Goffstown, and Merrimack, and the combination of that geology plus heavy residential well use makes water treatment a standard part of owning a home here. We work in Bedford constantly, from the newer subdivisions off South River Road to older homes along Wallace and Back River Road.

What Bedford homes tend to deal with.

Southern NH

Bedford is repeatedly cited by NHDES and UNH research as one of the hotspots in southern New Hampshire for naturally occurring arsenic in bedrock wells. The granite here leaches arsenic, uranium, and radon into groundwater, and a significant share of tested wells in town come back above the EPA's 10 parts per billion arsenic limit. Arsenic has no taste, smell, or color, so homeowners routinely go years without knowing they have a problem until they test. Uranium shows up alongside arsenic in many Bedford wells and has its own EPA action level of 30 parts per billion. Radon in water is also common, particularly in the western parts of town closer to the Manchester line. On top of the bedrock contaminants, Bedford's well water tends to be hard, which drives scale in water heaters and staining on fixtures. PFAS is worth testing for given Bedford's proximity to the Merrimack Saint-Gobain plume, even though Bedford itself is not on the primary consent-order footprint.

What we install here.

Bedford is our bread-and-butter for whole-home arsenic and uranium removal systems, usually combined with radon aeration and a water softener to handle the hardness. Point-of-use reverse osmosis under the kitchen sink is a common add-on for drinking water. For any Bedford home on a private well, the right starting point is a comprehensive water test covering arsenic, uranium, radon, hardness, iron, manganese, and PFAS. We handle the NHDES PFAS rebate paperwork up to $5,000 for qualifying homes.
