Why Choose Culligan?

The Best Water Softeners and Water Filters in Riverview, Florida.

Riverview water quality often faces our share of water filtration and treatment issues:

Surface water, like rivers and snow melt, absorb contaminants that can be harmful for consumption as well as annoying around the home. Most of these contaminants include naturally occurring bio materials and minerals. This means water quality can worsen seasonally when warming temperatures contribute to algal blooms, or heighten water sensitivity to microorganism growth.

Ground water presents its own treatment challenges and filtration issues, so Brandon residents with primarily ground water service may see different water problems than those using water from Brandon surface water sources. Most often, these manifest as hard water problems which cause buildup on faucets and fixtures, and can be hard on appliances and plumbing.

What is Riverview, Florida’s Water Quality?

Riverview’s drinking water comes from the South-Central Hillsborough County Water System, which blends groundwater from the Floridan Aquifer with surface water from Tampa Bay Water. This water undergoes advanced treatment processes such as reverse osmosis, chloramination, ozonation, and fluoridation to ensure safety and quality before distribution.

According to Hillsborough County’s 2024 Annual Water Quality Report, the following regulated contaminants were detected in the municipal supply, though none exceeded EPA safety limits:

Routine testing also detected trace levels of unregulated PFAS compounds. While legally compliant, these substances may raise health concerns over long-term exposure. Water quality can also vary depending on home plumbing and infrastructure, so in-home water testing is recommended.

Yes. Riverview’s water meets or exceeds all federal and state drinking water standards. Hillsborough County Water Resources performs more than 33,000 lab tests on water samples annually to ensure quality.

However, “safe” by EPA standards doesn’t always mean risk-free. Some trace contaminants—like disinfection byproducts, chlorine, or metals from home plumbing—may still affect taste or health over time. If you’re sensitive or live in an older home, consider water testing and filtration.

Yes. Riverview’s water is classified as hard, due to elevated levels of calcium and magnesium that naturally occur in groundwater drawn from the Floridan Aquifer.

  • Signs of hard water include:
  • White mineral scale on fixtures and appliances
  • Dry hair or skin after showering
  • Soap that doesn’t lather well
  • Stiff laundry or cloudy dishes

The level of hardness is not detailed in the water quality report. However, a free water test by Culligan can tell you ow hard your water is and provide insight to possible solutions. A water softener can help reduce buildup, protect plumbing, and improve water feel and efficiency.

Yes, trace levels of unregulated PFAS compounds were detected in Riverview’s water in 2024. These included:

  • PFBA: up to 5.7 ppt
  • PFBS: up to 4.5 ppt
  • PFHxA: up to 6.0 ppt
  • PFOS: up to 4.4 ppt
  • PFPeA: up to 8.1 ppt

Though these levels remain below the newly proposed federal limits, PFAS—often called “forever chemicals”—are known for their persistence in the body and environment.

Culligan offers targeted filtration systems designed to reduce PFAS at the point of entry or point of use.

Yes. Fluoride is added to Riverview’s water to promote dental health. In 2024, levels averaged 0.73 ppm, within the CDC-recommended range of 0.7–1.2 ppm.

However, starting July 1, 2025, Hillsborough County will discontinue fluoride addition due to new state legislation. If you prefer to remove fluoride or adjust your intake, reverse osmosis systems are a reliable option.

Riverview’s water comes from the South-Central Hillsborough County Water System, which is part of the Tampa Bay regional supply. Sources include:

  • Groundwater from the Floridan Aquifer
  • Surface water from the Alafia and Hillsborough Rivers
  • Desalinated seawater from Tampa Bay Water’s Apollo Beach facility

This water is treated using:

  • Reverse osmosis
  • Coagulation, settling, and filtration
  • Chloramines and ozone disinfection
  • Fluoridation (until mid-2025)
  • Corrosion inhibitors to protect home plumbing

If you notice signs of hard water—like spots on dishes, dry skin, or scale buildup—a water softener can provide noticeable improvements. Benefits include:

  • Softer skin and hair
  • Longer-lasting water heaters and appliances
  • Fewer plumbing issues
  • Better soap and detergent performance

Culligan softeners are specifically calibrated for Hillsborough County’s water hardness and come with professional installation and support.

Even with safe tap water, many Riverview residents choose filtration to improve taste and reduce unwanted substances, including:

  • Chlorine and chloramine
  • Lead and copper from household pipes
  • Disinfection byproducts (HAA5, TTHMs)
  • Unregulated contaminants like PFAS

Culligan offers both whole-home and under-sink filters. Free water testing can help you find the right option for your needs.
