According to the CDC, “Arsenic can enter the water supply from natural deposits in the earth or from industrial and agricultural pollution. It is widely believed that naturally occurring arsenic dissolves out of certain rock formations when ground water levels drop significantly. Some industries in the United States release thousands of pounds of arsenic into the environment every year. Once released, arsenic remains in the environment for a long time. Arsenic is removed from the air by rain, snow, and gradual settling. Once on the ground or in surface water, arsenic can slowly enter ground water. High arsenic levels in private wells may come from certain arsenic containing fertilizers used in the past or industrial waste. It may also indicate improper well construction or overuse of chemical fertilizers or herbicides in the past.”

“Water Specialist Mike M. came to our house near Grayling and was wonderful. His thoroughness in diagnosing our issues and testing our water and then laying out the solutions was outstanding. I highly recommend Mike and American Aqua. I’m very pleased. Thank you Mike!”
“Amazing water. Best in the tri County area. Don’t get water anywhere else. Do you value your health and your life? Drink PWW high quality H20 only! “
“Adam showed as promised in the time window American Aqua had indicated. These two guys were AWESOME. They drained both of our water heaters to ensure there was no lingering bacteria causing the sulfur smell. To say they went above and beyond would be an understatement. Many thanks to their efforts! We no longer have issues with the water taste, smell and have white clothes that are still white after washing. I cannot recommend this company enough. If you are in need of a quality solution to an existing water issue, these are your guys.”
