Water Treatment in Jenkinsville, SC

Most of Jenkinsville is on Jenkinsville Water Company, and homes outside its lines may use private wells. How to tell which you have, and what each usually needs.

What this means for your home

Jenkinsville Water Company is the town's public water system; homes outside its lines may be on other systems or private wells.

  • Jenkinsville Water Company's report doesn't list hardness. Most reservoir-fed systems in this region are soft, but a quick hardness test at your tap is the only way to know before anyone recommends a softener.
  • 44.1% of homes in Jenkinsville were built before 1980. EPA notes homes built before 1986 are more likely to have lead in their plumbing, so a certified-lab lead test at the tap is a sensible first step in an older home.
  • Private wells aren't treated or monitored by a utility. North Carolina only requires a one-time test when a new well is built, so a current certified-lab test is the right starting point.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Test

    We read your utility's report with you, and run a certified-lab test when your home calls for one.

  3. Step 3

    Licensed install

    An independent licensed plumber installs under a separate agreement with you.

  4. Step 4

    Retest

    We confirm the system is doing what it's certified to do.
