  • ?? Ever wondered how your drinking water is treated before it reaches your home? At West View Water Authority, we use a multi-step treatment process to provide safe, high-quality water to our customers. Our process includes: ?? Coagulation & Flocculation – Particles in the water bind together for easier removal. ?? Sedimentation – These particles settle, leaving clearer water. ?? Filtration – Water is filtered through layers of sand, gravel, and charcoal to remove impurities. ?? Disinfection – Chlorine and other treatments ensure water safety by eliminating harmful microorganisms. ?? Distribution – The treated water is stored and delivered to homes and businesses across our service area. ?? Water quality is our top priority! Our dedicated team works 24/7 to ensure that every drop you drink meets the highest standards. Check out our infographic to see the full process in action! ?? #WestViewWater #Infrastructure #WaterQuality #SustainableWater #WaterTreatment #FunFactFriday
