What We See in Shohola Wells
Private wells in Shohola, like many in the Upper Delaware River region, frequently encounter hard water, typically ranging from 10-25 gpg, which can lead to scale buildup in pipes and appliances.
Due to the glacial till and Catskill formation geology, Shohola wells often experience low pH, increasing the risk of copper and lead corrosion from plumbing systems, and sometimes iron and manganese discoloration and sulfur odors.
Proximity to the Delaware River and the area’s geology can contribute to various well water conditions, making localized water testing and tailored treatment solutions essential for Shohola homeowners.
