Know Your Water

Is This What's Hiding in Your Tampa Bay Water?

Most homeowners are surprised by what their water test reveals. Here's what we find most often across Pasco, Pinellas, Hillsborough, and Hernando counties — and what actually fixes each problem for good.

Hard Water

All Counties · 8–25+ grains per gallon (GPG)

Tampa Bay area water is classified as hard to very hard. Municipal water in Hillsborough County runs 8–12 GPG; Pasco and Hernando County well water often measures 15–25 GPG. Hardness causes scale buildup on fixtures, reduces appliance efficiency, and leaves skin and hair feeling dry.

Solution: Water Softener

Iron & Rust Staining

Pasco, Hillsborough, Hernando (Well Water) · Common in Florida aquifer well water

Dissolved iron in well water oxidizes when it contacts air, depositing rust-orange stains on sinks, toilets, tubs, and laundry. Even low concentrations of 0.3 mg/L can cause visible staining. Florida's limestone aquifer naturally leaches iron into groundwater throughout the Tampa Bay region.

Solution: Iron Filter

Sulfur / Rotten Egg Odor

Pasco, Hillsborough, Hernando (Well Water) · Hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) from aquifer

The rotten egg smell in Florida well water is caused by hydrogen sulfide gas — a naturally occurring compound in the Floridan Aquifer that supplies most well water in the Tampa Bay area. Even small concentrations (above 0.05 mg/L) produce a strong, unpleasant odor. It's harmless at trace levels but makes water unusable without treatment.

Solution: Sulfur Filter

Chlorine & Chloramine Taste

All Municipal (City) Water · Added by water utilities for disinfection

Tampa Bay municipal water providers add chlorine or chloramines (chlorine + ammonia) to disinfect the water supply — required by EPA standards. While safe to drink, these disinfectants give water a chemical taste and odor, and can react with organic matter to form disinfection byproducts. An activated carbon filter or reverse osmosis system removes them at the tap.

Solution: Reverse Osmosis or Carbon Filter

Not sure what's in your water?

A T&K technician comes to your home, tests hardness, iron, sulfur, pH, and more on-site, and shows you the results immediately — in plain English. No lab wait, no guesswork, no pressure. We only recommend treatment if your water genuinely needs it.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

We serve homeowners and businesses throughout Pasco, Pinellas, Hillsborough, and Hernando counties in the Tampa Bay area — including New Port Richey, Wesley Chapel, Land O' Lakes, Clearwater, St. Petersburg, Tampa, Brandon, Brooksville, and Spring Hill. We are now also servicing Puerto Rico.
Common signs include white scale buildup on faucets and showerheads, spotty dishes out of the dishwasher, dry or itchy skin after showering, soap that won't lather well, and shortened appliance life. Tampa Bay water is typically hard to very hard — a free in-home test will tell you exactly what you're dealing with.
Tampa Bay area water ranges from hard to very hard. Municipal water in Hillsborough County typically measures 8–12 grains per gallon (GPG). Well water in Pasco and Hernando counties can run 15–25 GPG or higher. Water above 7 GPG is considered hard; above 14 GPG is very hard. Hard water causes scale buildup, reduces appliance efficiency, and dries out skin and hair.
That sulfur or rotten egg odor is caused by hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas, which occurs naturally in Florida's aquifer system. It's very common in Pasco, Hillsborough, and Hernando County well water. We install whole-home sulfur removal systems — typically an air-injection iron and sulfur filter — that eliminate the odor at the point of entry so it never reaches a single faucet in your home.
Orange or rust-colored staining is caused by dissolved iron in your water — extremely common in Florida well water. As iron-laden water contacts air, it oxidizes and deposits rust stains on porcelain, laundry, and appliances. An iron filter installed at whole-home entry removes iron before it reaches your fixtures, eliminating staining completely.
A reverse osmosis (RO) system removes up to 99% of dissolved contaminants, including chlorine, chloramines, fluoride, nitrates, lead, arsenic, heavy metals, bacteria, viruses, and total dissolved solids. RO systems install under your kitchen sink or on the countertop and provide clean, great-tasting drinking water from a dedicated tap.
A water softener uses ion exchange to remove hardness minerals (calcium and magnesium), preventing scale and softening skin and hair. A water filter physically or chemically removes contaminants like chlorine, sediment, iron, or sulfur. Many Tampa Bay homes benefit from both — a whole-home softener for hardness, plus an under-sink reverse osmosis system for drinking water.
Yes, in most cases. Tampa Bay municipal water still contains significant hardness (typically 8–12 GPG) and causes scale buildup on appliances, spotty dishes, and dry skin. City water is treated for safety but not for hardness. A softener removes those minerals at the point of entry, protecting your plumbing, water heater, dishwasher, and washing machine.
UV purification passes water through an ultraviolet light chamber that neutralizes bacteria and viruses without chemicals. It's especially recommended for well water, where bacterial contamination is possible, and for households wanting an extra layer of protection. T&K installs UV systems standalone or as part of a dual-tank treatment setup.
A standard installation at a Tampa Bay home typically takes 2–4 hours. Our technicians handle all plumbing connections, program the control head, and walk you through operation before they leave. No overnight service disruption is required.
A well-maintained water softener typically lasts 15–20 years. Key factors include your water quality (high iron accelerates wear), salt quality, and proper regeneration scheduling. Regular salt refills and occasional resin cleaning extend system life significantly.
Yes. We offer flexible lease, rental, and purchase options for water softeners, iron filters, reverse osmosis systems, and dual-tank setups. Rental and lease programs require no large upfront investment and typically include service and maintenance — making professional water treatment accessible for renters and budget-conscious homeowners alike.
Yes. Our technicians are trained to service and repair most major water treatment brands. We carry a large parts inventory so we can often fix issues on the first visit, and every repair is backed by our 1-year guarantee.
NSF International independently tests and certifies water treatment equipment to strict safety and performance standards. NSF/ANSI 44 covers softeners, NSF/ANSI 58 covers RO systems, and NSF/ANSI 55 covers UV systems. All equipment T&K Water installs is NSF certified — meaning you know exactly what you're getting and that it performs as advertised.
A T&K technician visits your home, tests your water on-site for hardness, iron, sulfur, chlorine, pH, and other parameters, and shows you the results immediately. Everything is explained in plain language. We only recommend a solution if your water genuinely needs one — no pressure, no obligations.
We deliver and add salt to your water softener on the schedule you choose: monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly, or bi-annually. We also offer a pay-as-you-go option — just call when you need salt.
