"Very Satisfied in giving them 5 stars"

After explaining my problem with a filtration system, I was giventhe time and curtesy of their owner. The cost to come out was very reasonable and was told that they would work with me within my budget.  He seemed to care very much and was very knowledgeable with his assessments. I am very satisfied in giving them 5 stars, all companies should give customer service this good, and it would make all experiences much easier.

FAQ: Manning Water Questions

Is Manning tap water safe to drink without extra filtration?

Yes. Manning’s water meets all safety standards, but homeowners may still notice their water tastes or smells off, like a chlorine taste or odor for example. A quality filtration or reverse osmosis system can greatly improve the taste and smell of your water, and protect your plumbing and appliances as well.

How hard is the water in Manning, SC?

Manning’s water is considered moderately hard, averaging around 90–120 parts per million (ppm). That means it can leave spots on glassware, buildup on faucets, and make your hair and skin feel dry. A Hague water softener removes hardness minerals to protect your plumbing, improve appliance lifespan, and make water feel smoother.

Why does my Manning tap water have a metallic or sulfur smell?

That odor is usually caused by iron or sulfur naturally present in groundwater from the Santee Limestone Aquifer. It’s common in areas around Manning and Summerton. A specialized filtration system that targets iron and hydrogen sulfide removes these odors and prevents staining on fixtures and laundry.

Do I need to test my well water in Manning, SC?

Yes. If your home uses a private well, you’re responsible for its water quality. Well water in Clarendon County often contains iron, bacteria, and sulfur, which can change seasonally or after heavy rainfall. Annual well water testing helps catch these issues early. Wadford Water Works offers certified testing and customized treatment for Manning wells.

What’s the best water treatment system for homes in Manning?

That depends on your water source. Homes connected to city water often benefit from whole-home filtration and reverse osmosis for drinking water. Private wells usually need iron, sulfur, or sediment filters combined with a softener. The best system starts with a professional water test and analysis, so we can match the solution to your home’s exact needs.
