Evans City at a Glance
A historic Butler County borough with unique water treatment needs
Evans City Water Challenges
From the historic borough to surrounding townships, Butler County presents unique water quality concerns
Aging Infrastructure
Evans City’s water system dates back over a century, with older copper service lines requiring modern filtration to ensure quality at the tap.
Disinfection Byproducts
Chlorine treatment creates trihalomethanes and haloacetic acids—compounds that whole-house carbon filtration can significantly reduce.
Hard Water Minerals
Butler County groundwater contains elevated calcium and magnesium that cause scale buildup, reduce appliance efficiency, and leave spots on fixtures.
Radon Exposure Risk
Butler County has the highest potential radon levels in PA. Groundwater can carry dissolved radon into homes through showers and faucets.
Iron & Manganese
Research shows 47% of area wells have iron issues and 56% have elevated manganese—causing orange staining, metallic taste, and plumbing damage.
Sulfur (Rotten Egg Odor)
Hydrogen sulfide is common in Butler County’s sandstone and shale aquifers, creating that unmistakable rotten egg smell in well water.
Know Your Water Source
Evans City homes receive water from either municipal supply or private wells—each with distinct treatment needs
Municipal Water
Evans City Water & Sewer Authority
The Evans City Water & Sewer Authority serves borough residents and portions of surrounding townships from their facility at 216 Wahl Avenue.
Common Municipal Concerns:
- Chlorine taste and odor from disinfection
- Trihalomethanes (disinfection byproducts)
- Hard water causing scale buildup
- Aging distribution infrastructure
- Sediment from older water mains
Recommended Solutions:
- Whole-house carbon filtration
- Water softener systems
- Point-of-use drinking water systems
Private Well Water
Jackson & Forward Townships
Many homes outside the borough in Jackson Township and Forward Township rely on private wells drilled into Butler County’s sandstone and shale formations.
Common Well Water Issues:
- Iron staining (47% of area wells)
- Manganese contamination (56% of wells)
- Hydrogen sulfide (rotten egg odor)
- Bacteria from surface contamination
- Low pH/acidic water conditions
- Hardness from limestone contact
Recommended Solutions:
- Iron/manganese filtration systems
- Sulfur removal with Greensand Plus
- UV disinfection for bacteria
- Acid neutralizers for pH balance
Areas We Serve in Evans City
From the historic downtown to the surrounding rural areas, we understand local water conditions
Downtown Evans City & Main Street
The historic heart of Evans City, incorporated in 1882, features charming homes along Main Street, South Jackson Street, and the original borough grid. This area is served by municipal water from the Evans City Water & Sewer Authority.
Older homes in the downtown area often have galvanized or copper service lines that can contribute sediment and trace metals to your water. A whole-house filtration system protects your entire home.
Jackson Township
Jackson Township borders Evans City to the north, west, and south. This rural township includes areas near Zelienople and Harmony, with many properties relying on private wells drilled into the region’s sandstone formations.
Well depths in Jackson Township typically range from 100–300 feet. The shale and sandstone aquifers often contain naturally occurring iron and hydrogen sulfide requiring specialized filtration.
Forward Township
Forward Township lies east of Evans City, extending toward Mars and Cranberry Township. Named after Secretary of the Treasury Walter Forward, this area features a mix of municipal water along Route 68 and private wells in more rural sections.
Newer construction in Forward Township often benefits from water conditioning from day one, protecting new appliances and plumbing fixtures from hard water damage.
Breakneck Creek Area
Evans City sits in the valley of Breakneck Creek, named by French traders as “Casse-cou-anse.” Properties along the creek and surrounding hillsides face unique water quality considerations from the local geology.
Properties near Breakneck Creek may experience seasonal water quality changes. Comprehensive water testing helps us design systems that perform year-round.
