Whole home water filtration and salt-free water conditioners in Sarasota.

What is in Sarasota tap water, and what to do about it

Sarasota County water is a blend: roughly half Peace River surface water, plus the T. Mabry Carlton Jr. wellfield and water purchased from Manatee County. It arrives disinfected and safe to drink. Most households still notice chlorine on the nose and mineral scale on faucets, shower glass and appliances.

Where you live changes the answer. Homes in Lakewood Ranch and the rest of our Sarasota and Manatee service area can sit on different utilities, and some properties use private wells. We ask which supply you are on before we recommend anything.

A whole home water filtration system treats water where it enters the house, so every tap gets the same water. For scale, a salt-free water conditioner changes how minerals behave so they cling to pipes and heaters less. It needs no salt, no electricity and no drain discharge. A traditional water softener removes hardness minerals, uses salt and a drain connection, and some homeowners prefer that result. We explain the trade-offs and you choose.

We serve Sarasota, Lakewood Ranch and the surrounding communities, including Bradenton, Venice, North Port, Longboat Key and Siesta Key. Pick your community in the service area list below for water notes specific to your town.
