Private well owners are responsible for their own water quality, and coastal plain geology in Horry, Georgetown, and Brunswick counties commonly produces iron, manganese, hydrogen sulfide, and tannins.
Well water pricing varies more than city water because the treatment train depends entirely on what is in the water. A home with 1 ppm of iron needs a very different system than a home with tannins, sulfur odor, and 6 ppm of iron.
That is why we test first. The free in-home test tells us which stages you actually need so you are not paying for equipment that does not address your water.
Typical Price Ranges
Ranges reflect typical installed investment in our service area and vary with water chemistry, household size, and plumbing configuration. Your exact quote is provided after a free in-home water test — no obligation to purchase.
What Affects Your Price
- Which contaminants are present and at what concentration — iron, manganese, sulfur, tannins, hardness.
- Your well's flow rate and pressure tank condition, which determine equipment sizing.
- Water pH, which affects how effectively iron and manganese can be removed.
- Whether bacteria are present, which may call for shock chlorination and UV disinfection.
- Space, drain access, and electrical availability at the well house or utility area.
- Whether you want a dedicated drinking water stage such as reverse osmosis.
