Florida City's drinking water comes from groundwater drawn from the Biscayne Aquifer, according to the city's 2025 water quality report. The city's 2025 water quality report says that water is disinfected by chlorination. We're starting in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties, so Florida City is part of our Miami-Dade coverage area. We're a new company: you call us, send a few photos, and get one written price for a named system. A local plumber does the install.
What to do before you call
Confirm your utility
Look at who bills you for water: that's your utility. Check before you call so we are working from the right report.
Read the city's annual report
Florida City Utilities published a 2025 water quality report. Read it and note anything you want to ask about. If you have questions about what the report says, call the Utilities office at 305-248-6855.
Decide where you want filtered water
A whole-house system goes on the main line where water enters the house. An under-sink reverse osmosis system serves one spot, usually the kitchen. Reading through the comparison before you call helps you describe what you want.
Take a photo of your water entry point
Find where the main line enters the house. It's usually in a utility room or garage. Take a clear photo of that spot. If you're thinking about under-sink, open the cabinet and photograph the space. Those photos are what we use to give you a written price.
Think about your home setup
If you want to know what material your service line is made of, the city's report says to contact the utility office at 305-247-8221.
Check whether you're on city water or a private well
We're starting with homes on city water. If you're on a private well, tell us when you call and we'll say honestly whether we can help yet.

What the city's report tells you and what it doesn't
The 2025 report from Florida City Water and Sewer covers the public water system serving the city (PWS ID 4130255). It describes the source, the disinfection method, and the results of required testing. It does not say whether you need any additional filtration. If something in the report raises a question, call the Utilities office at 305-248-6855. For a broader look at what the columns and terms mean, our guide on reading your utility's annual report walks through the report format. The state's source water assessment for Florida City is on file with Florida DEP, and the city's report links to the FDEP Source Water Assessment and Protection Program if you want to review it.
Choosing between a whole-house system and under-sink reverse osmosis
The right system depends on where in your home you want filtered water and what your plumbing allows. A whole-house filter goes on the main supply line and serves the fixtures connected after it, though hose bibs and irrigation lines often branch off before that point. An under-sink reverse osmosis system serves one location and does not require touching the main line. Neither one is automatically the right answer. How a whole-house filter works and how to choose between the two options are good places to start if you have not thought through the difference yet. Some people also ask about water softeners. Florida City's report does not publish a hardness figure, so if that matters to you, call the Utilities office and ask directly. For general background, our softener vs. filter page explains what each one does.
