Water Testing
Water Treatment Solutions
Macatawa Plumbing recommends you put “water testing” on your list of home maintenance activities especially if you are not connected to a municipal water source.
Homeowners with well water should consider having their water tested every 1-2 years at a minimum as conditions can change.
Also, it’s important to consider the age of your home and the construction materials used at the time. Homes built 30+ years ago likely contain metal piping and regular testing is a smart preventive measure.
Macatawa Plumbing provides installation, repair, and maintenance services for several types of water treatment solutions. Please give us a call today for your free water test / consultation at (616) 772-0388.
Private wells should be tested yearly. Wells less than 50 feet deep (termed shallow wells) should be tested more frequently based on seasons of the year.
The primary purpose of municipalities putting chlorine in our water is to destroy bacteria and viruses that can enter a water system in numerous ways. The EPA allows up to 4 parts per million in drinking water. Over 98% of US water supply systems use chlorine to disinfect drinking water.

Tannin Removal Systems
Tannins are a natural organic material produced by nature’s own fermentation process. Water can have a slight yellow to almost tea-like color which can cause staining.
Iron Filter
Water with high amounts of Iron and Manganese can have a rotten egg odor, especially on the hot water side of your plumbing system. Please reach out today at (616) 772-0388.
Chlorine Filter
Chlorine has been used for decades to disinfect water supplies. It can also alter the taste of your water as well as give off an unpleasant smell. Whole house chlorine filter solutions are availble.
Reverse Osmosis Systems
Reverse Osmosis Systems are yet another form of filtration solution. RO systems improve taste and remove many impurities in the water. Please give us a call to discuss which solution may fit.
Water Softeners
Hard water is simply water containing a high mineral count. Water tastes or smells funny, stains everything, and will clog up the pipes over time. Another good reason to test your water.
