Frequently Asked Questions — Centreville, VA

Centreville is served by Fairfax Water, which sources its water from the Occoquan Reservoir and the Potomac River. The water is treated to meet all federal and state drinking water standards. Fairfax Water uses chloramine as a disinfectant, which can produce a noticeable taste or odor in tap water.
For most Centreville homes, yes. Fairfax Water delivers moderately hard water that causes gradual scale buildup in your water heater, dishwasher, and on fixtures. A water softener extends appliance life, eliminates spots on glassware, and improves the feel of water for bathing. The investment typically pays for itself in 3 to 5 years through reduced energy and appliance costs.
Homes built in the 1980s may have copper pipes with lead solder (lead solder was banned in 1986). We recommend testing your water for lead, especially if you have not done so before. Running the cold water tap for 30 seconds before drinking helps flush any lead that may have leached from solder joints. A point-of-use filter certified for lead removal provides an additional layer of protection.
A whole-house activated carbon filter installed on your main water line removes chloramine and its associated taste and odor from all water in your home. For drinking water only, an under-sink reverse osmosis system is a more affordable option that provides exceptionally pure water at the kitchen tap.
We understand that a complete water treatment system is an investment. Contact us to discuss your options — we work with homeowners to find solutions that fit their budget while still effectively addressing their water quality concerns.
