Fenton’s water: softened at the plant, not at the well
The City of Fenton pumps from four groundwater wells, 75 to 100 feet deep, and is one of the few cities in Genesee County that supplies its own water. Its plant lime-softens the water. Lime goes into the first treatment cone to remove the easiest hardness, then caustic soda and polymer remove more. The city says finished water ranges from 100 to 130 ppm, or 6 to 8 grains per gallon.
The city’s 2025 Water Quality Report shows sodium at 120 ppm, fluoride at 0.70 ppm and arsenic averaging 0.6 ppb, far below the 10 ppb limit. Softening isn’t cheap. Fenton’s water superintendent told MSU’s Spartan Newsroom in 2024 that the plant used 548 tons of lime in 2023. For billing, call the city water department at (810) 629-6347. For water quality questions, call (810) 714-0528.
Outside the city, it depends where you live. Fenton Township’s water extension areas are now on the Genesee County system, which draws from Lake Huron (service began July 2025). Tyrone Township residents rely mainly on private wells, and the township’s 2024 master plan notes records of elevated arsenic in some wells. A private well gets no treatment unless the owner adds it. Michigan EGLE’s drinking water laboratory takes mail-in samples at (517) 335-8184.

Start with the water at your Fenton home
Tell Kyle whether your home uses a private well or a public water supply, what concerns you have noticed, and whether treatment equipment is already installed. If you have a recent utility report or laboratory result, keep it available for the visit.
Free in-home testing
Kyle checks hardness, iron, pH, chlorine, and total dissolved solids (TDS) to help guide equipment recommendations.
Equipment for your needs
Your measured water conditions, household water use, plumbing, and installation space help determine the proposed system.
A clear installation plan
Review the exact equipment, installation work, schedule, ongoing care, and written warranty terms with Kyle before proceeding.
The free visit is not a comprehensive contaminant or drinking-water safety test. Concerns about bacteria, PFAS, nitrate, arsenic, or lead need appropriate testing; consult your local health department or a certified laboratory.
Installed starting prices
These are approximate starting prices confirmed by Kyle. Your quote depends on your water, selected equipment, and installation requirements.

Fenton water-treatment questions
How do I know whether I need a water softener?
Start with measured hardness and your household’s needs. A softener addresses hardness; other water concerns may need a different treatment approach. Kyle’s free test helps guide that discussion.
Will a softener also address iron or sulfur odor?
Separate filtration may be appropriate. Tell Kyle about the symptoms, review your water results, and confirm the proposed equipment’s specifications before selecting a system.
How soon can testing or installation be scheduled?
Call Kyle for current availability in Fenton. Installation time depends on the equipment and plumbing work needed, and can be discussed when preparing your quote.
How should I prepare for the visit?
Have your existing water reports and equipment details available, and note where and when you notice problems. Confirm any sampling preparation instructions with Kyle when scheduling.
What will a drinking-water filter reduce?
Check the exact model’s certified reduction claims and performance information for the contaminants you want to address. NSF explains how to check water-treatment claims.
