Ahhh, beautiful Oconomowoc surrounded by historic landmarks, parks, trails, and of course, water! Oconomowoc Water Utility uses 6 goundwater wells to supply water through 4 entry points. Five of these wells are drilled deep into the Sandstone Aquifer and the last provides water from the shallow Sand and Gravel formation. Drinking water in Oconomowoc meets all federal and state requirements. However, there are still contaminants in your water that cause buildup and discoloration on your plumbing, fixtures, and appliances.
All water is subject to contamination from a range of contaminants – both naturally occurring and manmade. This ranges from microbes, organic or inorganic chemicals, and radioactive materials. A water softener for Oconomowoc helps to bring soft water into your home to prevent various concerns.
