Private wells in Morris County
7,923 private wells were tested here from 2002 to 2014, one of the most of any county in New Jersey.
Morris County is one of the New Jersey counties where private wells most often fail the state standard for:
- Fecal coliform / E. coli
Across the region
Uranium and radon
The Highlands' granite-like bedrock contains uranium. Wells can pick up uranium and radon from it, which is why New Jersey requires uranium testing for private wells in northern counties.
Arsenic in private wells
New Jersey's Piedmont region has the state's highest rate of arsenic in private wells: about 17% exceed the state standard. It comes naturally from minerals in the bedrock, and you can't see, taste, or smell it.
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 Morris County?
It depends on the town: Morristown is served by Southeast Morris County MUA; Parsippany-Troy Hills is served by Parsippany-Troy Hills Township; Roxbury is served by New Jersey American Water; Mount Olive is served by New Jersey American Water (parts of town). If your home has its own well pump and pressure tank, your well is your supply. We install in every town in Morris County, on either kind of water.
What should I test my well for in Morris 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 Morris County it must include uranium. Wells here are among the state's most likely to fail for fecal coliform / e. coli. The local geology also makes uranium and radon and naturally occurring arsenic worth checking.
