Culligan of Troy, NY

Water hardness in Troy depends on your water source. The City of Troy draws its drinking water from the Tomhannock Reservoir, a 12.3-billion-gallon surface reservoir located approximately 6.5 miles northeast of the city. This reservoir also supplies water to several neighboring communities. Albany and other Capital Region cities rely on different water sources, while many rural homes use private wells. Hardness levels vary between these sources. A free in-home water test from Culligan of Troy can measure the hardness of your tap water.

The City of Troy describes the water quality of the Tomhannock Reservoir as good to excellent and publishes an Annual Water Quality Report detailing its drinking water quality. However, the city's 2023 report disclosed a temporary exceedance of the lead standard, and Troy is working to replace lead service lines. Some homeowners choose additional water treatment to address concerns such as lead, chlorine taste, or hardness. Homes that rely on private wells are not treated or routinely monitored by public water utilities. A free water test from Culligan of Troy can help identify common water quality concerns at your tap. Laboratory testing is required to detect contaminants such as lead.

Fluoride practices vary by water utility, so the answer depends on your water provider. Your utility's annual Water Quality Report, also known as a Consumer Confidence Report, identifies whether fluoride is added and at what concentration. Homes that rely on private wells may contain naturally occurring fluoride. Some drinking water filtration systems can reduce fluoride, but performance varies by model. Ask your Culligan of Troy water expert for specific performance information about any system you're considering.

White spots are typically caused by limescale, which forms when water evaporates and leaves behind calcium and magnesium minerals. Water hardness varies throughout the Capital Region, particularly in homes that rely on private wells. This can lead to spots on glassware, faucets, and shower doors. A Culligan water softener removes hardness minerals before water reaches your fixtures, helping reduce new water spots and scale buildup.
