1,500+ Reviews 1,500+ Reviews Arsenic is the most common serious well-water issue we see in Northern Nevada. Private wells here rank among the highest arsenic levels in the continental United States. The only way to know is a certified laboratory test.
Arsenic in Northern Nevada well water — EPA 10 ppb, what we routinely see, and why type matters.
“Arsenic treatment is not one-size-fits-all. It must be properly tested, designed, and installed to perform correctly.” — Bryce Pollock, managing partner
We identify not just arsenic, but the type (As(III) or As(V)), plus anything else that can block the media.
No-pressure quote. The system is built for your chemistry, pressure, and flow — the latest, longest-lasting media, not a one-size-fits-all tank.
Installed by Nevada-licensed technicians, fast, clean, and to code. NV Lic #94724.
We verify performance after install and keep the system working. “When it comes to arsenic, the system has to be right—or it doesn’t work.”
Inorganic arsenic in groundwater is usually As(III) or As(V). Type III is harder to remove, so we typically oxidize it to type V first. Iron and other contaminants can block arsenic media. That is why we test before we size a system.
Ranges below are from our Northern Nevada infographic. Page copy uses these numbers, not the rounder map in the video.
| Area | Range we routinely see |
|---|---|
| Fallon / Churchill County | 8–2,100 ppb |
| Fernley | 9–150 ppb |
| Verdi | 0–150 ppb |
| Palomino Valley | 2–110 ppb |
| Washoe Valley | 2–25 ppb |
| Virginia City Highlands | Test — no published range |
| Reno city water | 4–14 ppb |
