Several U.S. homes rely on wells as their primary source of water, and your local water drilling company can assist if you're interested in well water for your home or business. There are many advantages that come with using well water over city water. Let's look at a few.

1. Well Owners Control the Treatment of Their Water

This is one of the most commonly cited advantages when well owners are asked why they didn't opt for city water. Cities and other municipalities are able to treat water as they see fit. There are often times that the treatment approach used can be changed without notification. If you want mineral-rich water that is fortifying for you and your family, well water is the way to go.

2. Cities Commonly Use Surface Water Rather Than Groundwater

According to American Geosciences Institute, wells are supplied by the 25% of global rainwater that turns into groundwater. Surface water isn't as safe or as healthy as well water. Your well-accessed groundwater from deep below the surface is naturally filtered. Conversely, some residents prefer chemically treated and filtered water as they believe it to be safer. While this may be true, surface water doesn't contain the minerals that draw many people to choose well water.

3. Service Disruptions Are Less Likely With Well Water

Anyone who has had to go without water may opt for a well for this reason alone. The water service interruption is inconvenient and can also be a health and safety issue. If you have young children or older adults living in your home, the need for uninterrupted water service is even more important. Issues like water main breaks, storm pipe damage, and natural disasters can all contribute to water service interruption. Additionally, you'll still have to continue paying your water bill even when there's no city water service.
