— WAVERLY HILLS WATER GUIDE
Waverly Hills water quality and utility guide

What do you need to know about this Waverly Hills home?
Public utility information stays available without contact information. Choose the path that matches the question you are trying to answer.
Health concern? Lead, PFAS, bacteria and other health-related questions require the correct certified laboratory method. A field check does not replace laboratory analysis. For sudden neighborhood-wide changes, check current utility notices first.Home-check requests are handled by Florida Premier Water Systems. Florida Tap Report and Florida Premier have common ownership.Who provides water to Waverly Hills?
Publicly available property and neighborhood records support the City utility path for Waverly Hills. Because utility boundaries do not follow mailing names, confirm the current account or City service lookup before applying the report.
A community name or mailing address does not by itself select a current drinking-water report. Match the current utility account or official address record before applying system-level results to one home.
What does the City of Tallahassee report?
The City says delivered water continues to meet current drinking-water standards. One source-well PFOS result is above the federal standard scheduled for enforcement in 2029; a source-well result is not every household tap.
Tallahassee draws groundwater from the Floridan Aquifer.
The City reports about 150 mg/L as calcium carbonate, roughly 9 grains per gallon. One home's untreated water should still be measured before softening is sized.
The City reports an average near 7.5, within EPA's recommended secondary range of 6.5–8.5.
Tallahassee and Leon County contain more than one public-water system. Confirm the provider on the current account or through the City's service lookup before using these results for one address.
City results do not test every home's plumbing, fixtures, hardness or installed treatment.

Why one Waverly Hills home's tap can differ from the utility report
Waverly Hills homes vary in age, service plumbing, water heaters and fixtures, so one property can differ from systemwide results.
Water reaching a faucet has also passed through the service connection, premise plumbing, water heater, fixtures and any installed treatment.
A concern at one residence must not be generalized to all of Waverly Hills. Irrigation, lakes and stormwater are separate from household drinking water.

Property water checklist
Match the current account or City service lookup to City of Tallahassee Utilities.
Use a cold-water sample point before any filter, softener or reverse-osmosis system.
Use the home's untreated hardness—not a neighborhood estimate—to size softening.
Confirm the current City disinfectant information before selecting carbon media.
Do not use irrigation, lake or pool observations to describe household drinking water.
Use a certified laboratory for a contaminant-specific or health-related concern.
Waverly Hills water quality and testing questions
Is Waverly Hills tap water safe to drink?
The City reports hard groundwater at about 9 grains per gallon. The public report cannot guarantee conditions at every property or fixture. Follow any current official notice and investigate a concern limited to one home separately.
What should a Waverly Hills homeowner verify first?
Match the current account or City service lookup to City of Tallahassee Utilities.
Why can one Waverly Hills home differ from the report?
Waverly Hills homes vary in age, service plumbing, water heaters and fixtures, so one property can differ from systemwide results.
Does a Waverly Hills home automatically need a filter or softener?
No. Use a cold-water sample point before any filter, softener or reverse-osmosis system.
Is Waverly Hills water hard?
The City reports about 150 mg/L as calcium carbonate, roughly 9 grains per gallon. One home's untreated water should still be measured before softening is sized. A system-level result still does not establish the current untreated hardness at every Waverly Hills home.
Where can Waverly Hills homeowners get water tested?
Start with the applicable public utility report for system-level context. For a concern limited to one home, identify an untreated cold-water sample point and choose testing that matches the question. Health-specific concerns require an appropriate certified laboratory method.
