Source water, often called raw water, is the untreated water found in natural sources such as rivers, streams, lakes, reservoirs, springs, and groundwater that supply drinking water to communities. Its quality and composition vary widely depending on the source, making each environment unique and presenting specific challenges for water treatment. Careful analysis of source water is essential for assessing pollution risks and developing effective treatment methods.
At Xylem, we recognize the critical need for dependable source water monitoring. We provide a diverse selection of adaptable, long-term solutions with seamless integration options to enable continuous water quality monitoring and proactive management. Our systems may incorporate various instruments, including water quality sensors, floating and stationary profilers, meteorological sensors, and data acquisition platforms. Beyond supplying equipment, we also assist with site design, installation, and ongoing field support.nsors, and data acquisition platforms.

Source water is vital for delivering clean water to communities and sustaining ecosystems, yet it remains susceptible to contamination and pollution that threaten both human health and the environment.
Protecting source water minimizes the need for expensive treatment later in the water supply process, resulting in cost savings for utilities and, ultimately, for consumers. Maintaining healthy source water also preserves diverse habitats essential to aquatic life. By protecting these ecosystems, we safeguard the environment and enhance public health.
Regulatory measures are essential for managing and safeguarding source water. Governments and regulatory agencies set standards and guidelines to prevent pollution and promote sustainable water use. These regulations typically involve establishing pollutant limits, conducting regular water quality monitoring and testing, and imposing penalties for violations.
