Across the region
Acidic, iron-prone well water
This area sits on the sandy aquifers of the Coastal Plain. Water in the widely used Kirkwood-Cohansey aquifer is naturally acidic, which can corrode pipes and leave blue-green stains, and some aquifers here carry a lot of iron. USGS testing also found radium above the federal limit in about a third of sampled Kirkwood-Cohansey wells in southern New Jersey.
PFAS limits
New Jersey was the first state to set limits for PFAS "forever chemicals": 14 parts per trillion for PFOA and 13 for PFOS and PFNA. Public utilities must meet them. Private wells are only tested when a home is sold or leased.
Hardness varies by town
New Jersey's median tap water is moderately hard, about 5 grains per gallon, and it changes a lot from one supplier to the next. Your water test tells you exactly where you stand.

Who supplies drinking water in Cumberland County?
It depends on the town: Vineland is served by City of Vineland; Millville is served by City of Millville; Bridgeton is served by City of Bridgeton. If your home has its own well pump and pressure tank, your well is your supply. We install in every town in Cumberland County, on either kind of water.
What should I test my well for in Cumberland County?
New Jersey's Private Well Testing Act requires a test before a home with a well is sold, and every five years for rentals; in Cumberland County it must include mercury. Wells here are among the state's most likely to fail for radioactivity (gross alpha), nitrate, and mercury. The local geology also makes acidic water, iron, and radium worth checking.
