Water Treatment in Windham, Maine

Cleaner, Safer Water for Windham Families

Windham has grown rapidly along the Route 302 corridor, becoming one of the most vibrant communities in the Lakes Region. Between rural homes on private wells and neighborhoods connected to public water, water quality can vary dramatically from one home to the next.

At Fontus Water Treatment, we help Windham homeowners take the guesswork out of what’s in their water. Whether you’ve noticed a strange taste, cloudy glassware, or are simply being proactive about your family’s health, our local experts make the process easy.

We start with a free on-site water test to check for common issues like hardness, odor, or iron. If more detailed testing is needed for contaminants such as arsenic, radon, or PFAS, we’ll coordinate through a certified third-party lab to provide reliable, accurate results you can trust.

Common Water Concerns in Windham, ME

Windham’s diverse geology and mix of water sources mean that no two homes are exactly alike. Here are some of the most common issues we help local homeowners resolve:

• Arsenic in private wells – Frequently found in Windham’s granite bedrock wells, especially in rural areas.
• Radon in water – Naturally occurring gas that can release into your home’s air when you shower or do laundry.
• Hard water – Causes mineral scale in plumbing, dull laundry, and reduced appliance lifespan.
• PFAS contamination – “Forever chemicals” found in Maine groundwater, linked to long-term health concerns.
• Chlorine taste or odor – Often reported in homes on municipal systems connected to Portland Water District lines.

What Makes Windham’s Water Unique

Windham’s water challenges come from its geological diversity and mix of public and private water supplies.

• Private wells: Many Windham homes rely on private wells drilled into granite-rich bedrock. This can lead to naturally elevated levels of arsenic and radon, both of which require specific filtration systems for safe removal.
• Public water: Homes connected to the Portland Water District typically have clean, regulated water, but some homeowners report chlorine taste, sediment, or hard water minerals depending on older plumbing or local conditions.

Because conditions vary so widely across neighborhoods—from North Windham to Highland Cliff Road—it’s important to have your own water tested to understand your specific needs.

Our advice: Even if your water looks clear, that doesn’t mean it’s contaminant-free.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I test my water in Windham?
For private wells, the Maine CDC recommends testing every 3–5 years for contaminants like arsenic, radon, and uranium — or sooner if you notice any changes in taste, odor, or staining.

Is water from the Portland Water District safe?
Yes, it meets federal standards, but chlorine taste, sediment, and aging plumbing can still affect quality. A simple filtration system can greatly improve taste and reduce irritants.

Do you charge for water testing?
No — Fontus offers free on-site water testing for common issues. If detailed lab testing is required, we’ll discuss costs upfront and only move forward with your approval.

How long does installation take if I need a system?
Most installations are completed in a single visit, and our team ensures every system is set up, tested, and ready to perform before we leave.
