What Are The Best Water Treatment Solutions For The Lakewood Ranch Area?
With this combination of water resources, Lakewood Ranch water quality often faces our share of water filtration and treatment issues:
Surface water, like rivers and snow melt, absorb contaminants that can be harmful for consumption as well as annoying around the home. Most of these contaminants include naturally occurring bio materials and minerals. This means water quality can worsen seasonally when warming temperatures contribute to algal blooms, or heighten water sensitivity to microorganism growth.
Ground water presents its own treatment challenges and filtration issues, so Sarasota residents with primarily ground water service may see different water problems than those using water from Sarasota’s surface water sources. Most often, these manifest as hard water problems which cause buildup on faucets and fixtures, and can be hard on appliances and plumbing.
What is Lakewood Ranch, Florida’s Water Quality?
Lakewood Ranch is a master-planned community spanning Manatee and Sarasota Counties, with water service provided primarily by the Manatee County Utilities Department. The county supplies water to over 350,000 residents, including the growing population of Lakewood Ranch, through a modern network of treatment and delivery systems.
The community’s water is sourced mainly from Lake Manatee, a surface water reservoir located east of Bradenton. The water is treated at the Lake Manatee Water Treatment Plant, which uses advanced processes like coagulation, flocculation, filtration, and disinfection to produce safe drinking water. The final product meets or exceeds all state and federal water quality standards.
Does Lakewood Ranch Have Hard Water?
Yes—hard water is a common issue in Lakewood Ranch and across much of Southwest Florida. The water typically contains elevated levels of calcium and magnesium, which can leave white residue on dishes and fixtures, cause soap scum in showers, and lead to buildup in pipes and appliances over time.
Many homeowners in Lakewood Ranch opt for whole-home water softening systems to protect plumbing, improve water clarity, and extend the life of their appliances.
Water Treatment in Lakewood Ranch, FL
While municipal treatment ensures water is legally safe to drink, surface water from Lake Manatee can still carry:
- Chlorine taste or odor from disinfection
- Mineral buildup due to water hardness
- Sediment or discoloration during heavy rains or algae blooms
- Emerging contaminants, such as PFAS or microplastics, which may not be fully addressed at the municipal level
A home water test is the best way to learn exactly what’s in your water. Your local Culligan Water expert can assess your specific water quality and recommend personalized solutions—whether it’s a reverse osmosis system for drinking water, a whole-home filtration system, or a water softener to reduce scale and buildup.
