Understanding Sampling Terms for Wayne County Aquifer 327KNWH
Detected Means Measured, Not Unsafe or Violative
The U.S. Geological Survey groundwater sampling detected total dissolved solids (TDS) in four samples from Wayne County aquifer 327KNWH. Detected signifies the measurement of TDS by instruments; it does not indicate a violation or health risk.
Median and Range Provide Regional Context, Not Specific Well Data
The median TDS value recorded was 81.46 tons per acre-foot, with values ranging from 0.22 to 1410.0 tons per acre-foot. These figures summarize the area's data, collected from a single well sampled multiple times, not your specific well water quality.
Household Symptoms Related to Complete Well Water Quality
Signs Possibly Linked to Elevated Total Dissolved Solids
- Noticeable taste changes in water at the tap
- Staining on fixtures or laundry consistent with dissolved solids
- Scaling buildup in appliances that use water
Symptoms Not Indicative of Regional TDS Levels
- Discoloration or cloudiness unrelated to dissolved solids
- Odd odors or sudden changes in water pressure
- Health symptoms unsupported by local water quality records
How Treated Water Differs Using the Autotrol Complete Well System
Reduction of Total Dissolved Solids for Improved Water Quality
The Autotrol Complete Well System uses proven technology to reduce the concentration of dissolved solids, improving water taste and minimizing staining on fixtures.
Consistent Water Softness and Clarity
By managing dissolved solids effectively, the system helps maintain clear, pleasant-tasting water suitable for everyday household use.
Interpreting TDS Range Versus Federal Secondary Standards
One Sample Exceeded the Aesthetic Secondary Standard, Not a Safety Concern
Within the regional samples, one result exceeded the secondary standard for taste and staining at 500.0 mg/L of TDS. This is a non-enforceable guideline related solely to aesthetics, not health or safety.
Range Indicates Potential Variation but Not Health Risk
The broad range in TDS shows that water composition can vary but does not imply any federal health violation or unsafe condition across the Wayne County aquifer.
Considering Sample Depth and Well Characteristics
Sampled Well Depths at 93 Feet Reflect a Typical Regional Profile
The USGS sampling was conducted at a depth of 93 feet, offering a consistent regional snapshot that may differ from shallower or deeper private wells.
Well Depth and Construction Affect Water Quality Expectations
Variations in private well depth or local geology mean that individual water testing is necessary to determine specific conditions for sizing your treatment system.
Key Takeaway: Regional Data Inform but Do Not Define Your Well
While the USGS data for Wayne County aquifer 327KNWH provides valuable insight into general water characteristics, it does not substitute for testing your own well. For appropriate sizing and effective water treatment, understanding the actual water quality specific to your residence is essential.
The Autotrol Complete Well System, with a grain capacity of 32,000, ships ready to configure for homes facing water issues consistent with regional dissolved solids levels, delivering targeted treatment to match your unique well conditions.
Where this information comes from
Source: USGS groundwater sampling. Sampled 2015-07-29. 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.
On record: U.S. Geological Survey sampling of Total dissolved solids in the 327KNWH aquifer (Wayne County): 4 results from 1 wells, median 81.46 tons/ac ft, range 0.22-1410.0 tons/ac ft; 1 above an AESTHETIC secondary standard only (secondary standard 500.0 mg/L (aesthetic)) - not a health finding
