FAQ
Additional Information On Easton, MD Tap Water
Is Easton tap water safe to drink?
Yes. Easton’s drinking water is tested for a wide range of regulated contaminants and meets drinking water standards. Monitoring includes microbiological contaminants, disinfection byproducts, inorganic contaminants, and radiological contaminants, with reported results staying within required limits.
Where does Easton’s drinking water come from?
Easton Utilities supplies drinking water from naturally filtered underground aquifers (water-bearing sands) through five deep wells, generally ranging from about 1,000 to 1,200 feet. The source aquifers include the Magothy Aquifer and the Upper Patapsco Aquifer, and water from multiple wells is blended before distribution.
How is Easton’s water treated?
Easton treats water as needed and maintains a disinfectant residual in the distribution system. Chlorine is used for disinfection, and the system also uses corrosion control practices to help protect water quality as it moves through pipes to homes and businesses.
Why is chlorine added to Easton’s water?
Chlorine helps control microbes and keep water safe as it travels through the distribution system. Some residents may notice a chlorine taste or smell at the tap, which can vary with distance from the source and seasonal conditions.
Does Easton add fluoride to its water?
No. Easton Utilities does not add fluoride. Some wells contain naturally occurring fluoride, and blending between wells helps manage the overall fluoride level delivered through the distribution system.
Is Easton water hard?
Easton’s water is generally considered soft. Reported hardness values are relatively low compared with many Mid-Atlantic systems, which means scale buildup can be less of a concern for many homes.
Is there PFAS in Easton drinking water?
Easton’s reporting includes PFAS discussion and monitoring. PFOA and PFOS were reported as not detected in earlier monitoring years listed in the materials, and additional UCMR testing results include very low reported values for select PFAS measured during the compliance period.
What about lead in Easton’s drinking water?
Lead in drinking water is most commonly related to plumbing materials. Easton’s lead and copper testing is reported with results under action levels. If you want to reduce potential exposure from household plumbing, flush the tap for several minutes before using water for drinking or cooking, especially after water has sat unused.
Why can Easton water look discolored sometimes?
Discoloration is often tied to normal distribution system conditions (like changes in flow that can disturb harmless mineral deposits in pipes). If discoloration persists, it’s worth contacting the utility. Many homeowners also choose point-of-use filtration for taste, clarity, and added peace of mind.
What about iron levels in Easton water?
Iron typically isn’t considered a health concern at typical drinking water levels, but it can cause staining or discoloration. Easton’s materials note elevated iron in specific wells and describe treatment steps used to address it.

Testimonials
Why Do Easton, Maryland
Homeowners LOVE Us?
We were tired of dealing with scale and residue on faucets and glassware. After installing a softener, everything rinses cleaner and we’re not constantly wiping buildup. Great experience in the Dover area.
We added reverse osmosis for drinking water and it’s been a noticeable upgrade. Water tastes better, ice is clearer, and we’ve cut way back on bottled water. Installation was smooth and the team explained everything clearly.
We wanted better overall water quality and protection for appliances. The system has helped with spotting and day-to-day water feel, and the whole process was easy from consult to install.
