In the heart of Bucks County, the quiet community of Ottsville, Pennsylvania (ZIP 18942) blends rolling farmland, rural charm, and historic homes. But beneath that beauty lies a challenge many homeowners share—maintaining healthy, clean water in a region where private wells and small water systems are common. At Dierolf Plumbing & Water Treatment, we bring over 25 years of expertise and more than 1,000 verified reviews to every job. As Licensed Master Plumbers and Well Inspectors, we help local families protect their homes, plumbing, and health with proven, customized water-quality solutions.
Hard Water and Mineral Buildup in Ottsville
Most Ottsville homes rely on private wells or small municipal systems, where natural minerals—especially calcium and magnesium—cause hard water. Over time, that hardness leads to cloudy glassware, dry skin and hair, reduced water-heater efficiency, and scale buildup in pipes. Our water treatment services and water softeners use advanced ion-exchange technology to eliminate hardness, prolonging appliance life and improving every drop from tap to shower.
Iron, Odor, and Staining Issues
Ottsville’s geology contributes to high iron and manganese levels that can leave orange or brown stains on sinks, tubs, and laundry. While these minerals aren’t typically health hazards, they damage plumbing and fixtures. Dierolf’s iron filtration systems remove both ferrous (dissolved) and ferric (oxidized) iron, restoring clarity and taste. We also offer sulfur and odor filtration solutions to combat “rotten-egg” smells often found in deeper wells or aging plumbing lines.
PFAS, Lead, and Emerging Contaminants
As Pennsylvania implements stricter limits for PFAS “forever chemicals,” homeowners in Bucks County should be proactive. According to the Pennsylvania DEP and EPA, these compounds can appear in groundwater near rural or industrial areas. Older Ottsville homes, many built before 1970, may also have lead or galvanized plumbing that contributes to corrosion and metal leaching. Our water testing & analysis includes PFAS, VOCs, and lead screening, and our reverse osmosis and ultraviolet filtration systems help safeguard your family’s drinking water.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do older homes in Ottsville have lead or corrosion risks?
Yes—homes built before 1970 often include galvanized or lead plumbing that can leach metals into drinking water. Our water testing identifies corrosion, lead, and pH imbalances, while our reverse osmosis systems and neutralizers ensure safe, balanced water for every faucet.
Why is my well water orange or leaving stains?
This usually points to iron or iron-bacteria contamination. Our iron filtration systems and sulfur filtration units restore clean, clear water and prevent damage to fixtures, pipes, and laundry.
Should I test for PFAS even if my water tastes fine?
Yes—PFAS are odorless and tasteless yet harmful over time. Pennsylvania DEP’s 2023 standards now regulate PFAS limits statewide (source). Dierolf offers free in-home testing bottles and advanced filtration systems proven to remove these contaminants.
