The U.S. Geological Survey sampled groundwater from Providence County's aquifer 112SRFD, recording total dissolved solids (TDS) in six well results between 2011 and 2019. The median TDS reading was 70 mg/L with a range from 0.09 to 79 mg/L, all below federal thresholds. These values reflect the aquifer's general water quality but do not describe any individual well's condition.
How Treated Water Differs at the Tap with the Autotrol Complete Well System
Reduction of dissolved solids impacting taste and household use
The Autotrol Complete Well System is designed to handle water with up to 32,000 grains capacity, effectively treating the typical range of TDS reported in Providence County's aquifer. Treated water generally provides improved taste and reduced scaling in pipes and appliances compared to untreated water sourced from the same aquifer.
Consistent water clarity and reduced mineral residue
After treatment, water shows fewer mineral deposits in sinks and showerheads, enhancing appearance and maintenance ease.
What to Record Before Seeking Treatment Advice
Own water test results for total dissolved solids and other minerals
Since regional data do not specify individual well conditions, document your well's laboratory test results for accurate advice.
Well depth and construction details
Providence County sample wells were about 50 feet deep; note your well's depth to compare conditions relative to local data.
Household water use patterns and size
Water consumption rates affect sizing; record daily household usage and any seasonal variations.
First Fixtures, Appliances, or Processes Affected
Water-using appliances such as dishwashers and water heaters
These units respond quickly to changes in water quality, showing reduced scaling and improved function after treatment.
Bathroom fixtures prone to mineral buildup
Treated water reduces white spots and deposits on faucets and shower doors, easing cleaning needs.
Additional Considerations for Commercial or Industrial Operators
Higher and more variable water demand affecting system sizing
Industrial users track flow rates and peak usage beyond household patterns to ensure treatment capacity matches demand.
Regulatory compliance documentation and water quality reporting
Commercial entities maintain detailed records for audits and must verify treatment meets applicable water quality standards.
Household Symptoms Related to Water Quality
Signs that may indicate elevated dissolved solids
- Noticeable mineral deposits on fixtures
- Unusual taste in drinking water
- Rapid scaling in appliances
Symptoms not specifically linked to dissolved solids
- Cloudy or colored water without mineral residue
- Odors unrelated to mineral concentration
- Water pressure issues

Where this information comes from
Source: USGS groundwater sampling. Sampled 2019-09-16. These figures describe groundwater sampled in this area. They are not a test of any individual private well - only a test of that well can establish its own water.
