Uniontown at a Glance
The county seat of Fayette County with deep roots in American history
Uniontown Water Challenges
From the Allegheny foothills to the Monongahela Valley, Fayette County presents unique water quality concerns
Chlorine & Disinfection
Pennsylvania American Water treats municipal supply with chlorine, creating noticeable taste and odor that whole-house carbon filtration can eliminate.
Trihalomethanes (TTHMs)
Chlorine reacts with organic matter from the Youghiogheny and Monongahela Rivers to form TTHMs—disinfection byproducts that quality carbon filtration reduces.
Hard Water Minerals
Fayette County groundwater contains elevated calcium and magnesium that cause scale buildup, reduce appliance efficiency, and leave spots on fixtures.
Iron & Manganese
Studies show 17% of PA wells have elevated iron levels causing orange staining, metallic taste, and plumbing damage—especially common in coal country geology.
Sulfur (Rotten Egg Odor)
Hydrogen sulfide is common in the Appalachian geology of Fayette County, creating that unmistakable rotten egg smell in well water supplies.
Acidic Water & Low pH
Many private wells in the region produce acidic water that corrodes pipes, damages fixtures, and can leach metals into your drinking water.
Know Your Water Source
Uniontown area homes receive water from either Pennsylvania American Water or private wells—each with distinct treatment needs
Municipal Water
Pennsylvania American Water
Pennsylvania American Water serves approximately 23,125 residents in the Uniontown area. Water is sourced from the Youghiogheny and Monongahela Rivers, with additional supply from the Municipal Authority of Westmoreland County.
Common Municipal Concerns:
- Chlorine taste and odor from disinfection
- Trihalomethanes (TTHMs) and haloacetic acids
- Hard water causing scale buildup
- Potential lead from older service lines
- Aging distribution infrastructure
Recommended Solutions:
- Whole-house carbon filtration
- Water softener systems
- Point-of-use drinking water systems
Private Well Water
Surrounding Townships
Many homes in North Union, South Union, Menallen, and Dunbar Townships rely on private wells drilled into Fayette County’s coal-region geology. Penn State research shows 50% of PA private wells fail at least one drinking water standard.
Common Well Water Issues:
- Iron staining (17% of PA wells)
- Coliform bacteria contamination
- Hydrogen sulfide (rotten egg odor)
- Low pH/acidic water conditions
- Hardness from limestone contact
- Nitrates from agricultural areas
Recommended Solutions:
- Iron/manganese filtration systems
- Sulfur removal with Greensand Plus
- UV disinfection for bacteria
- Acid neutralizers for pH balance
Areas We Serve in Uniontown
From the historic downtown to the surrounding townships, we understand local water conditions
Downtown Uniontown
The historic heart of Uniontown, founded on July 4, 1776 by Quaker settler Henry Beeson. Downtown features the Fayette County Courthouse, historic Main Street architecture, and the legacy of the National Road that brought prosperity to this Appalachian crossroads.
Historic homes in downtown Uniontown often have older plumbing that can benefit from whole-house filtration to remove chlorine and sediment while protecting pipes from scale buildup and potential lead exposure.
North Union Township
North Union Township lies north of Uniontown, bounded by Franklin, Dunbar, and Wharton Townships. The township was created when Old Union Township was partitioned in 1851, and today features a mix of residential neighborhoods and commercial areas along the US 119 corridor.
North Union residents on municipal water benefit from chlorine removal and softening, while those on private wells often need iron filtration and bacteria treatment based on our testing.
South Union Township
South Union Township is a family-friendly residential area southwest of Uniontown with approximately 3,180 residents. Known for its quiet neighborhoods, good schools, and strong sense of community, it extends toward Fairchance and the West Virginia border.
Many South Union homes rely on private wells where comprehensive water testing is essential. We frequently find issues with hardness and sulfur that can be effectively addressed with custom treatment systems.
Menallen Township
Menallen Township lies west of Uniontown with deep roots in Fayette County’s coal mining heritage. The area features rural residential properties, working farms, and communities that grew around the region’s once-booming coal industry.
Coal-region geology in Menallen Township often produces well water with elevated iron, low pH, and hydrogen sulfide. Our comprehensive testing identifies exact issues for targeted treatment.
