Choose the report for your utility
The local sources below include DeSoto County Utilities. This is a starting list, not a map of every utility service area in DeSoto County. If a different supplier appears on your bill, request that supplier’s report.
Match the utility and system on your water bill. A ZIP code or mailing address does not establish service boundaries.
Results are specific to the named water system and testing period. Regional hardness estimates are labeled separately. Missing data is not a non-detection. Check your utility’s latest report and current notices.

A closer look at your local water
These results describe Lake Suzy Subdivision (FL6144856), not every home or water system in DeSoto County. Match this system to your water bill before using the results.
Source record: LAKE SUZY SUBDIVISION · Selected test records: 2024-01-01 – 2025-02-26
Results come from different testing periods. A detection is not, by itself, a finding that water is unsafe. “Not detected” means below the test’s reporting level; it does not mean zero. Missing results mean we have not verified that data here.
PFAS monitoring7 of 29 tested PFAS compounds detected
The table shows each compound’s highest reported result and latest listed test date. Those may come from different samples. Results are in parts per trillion (ppt).
| Substance | Highest reported result | Latest listed test | Detected samples |
|---|---|---|---|
| PFOA | 5 ppt | 4 | |
| PFOS | 4.5 ppt | 4 | |
| PFBA | 11 ppt | 7 | |
| PFBS | 6.9 ppt | 7 | |
| PFPeA | 5.8 ppt | 7 | |
| PFHxA | 4.6 ppt | 4 | |
| PFHpA | 3.4 ppt | 2 |
Lithium monitoringNot detected
MyTapWater reports lithium was tested and not detected. Selected lithium sample dates: 2024-03-06 – 2025-02-11

A list of tested substances is not a list of what a filter removes. Choose a system using its verified contaminant-reduction specifications and your water source. A softener addresses hardness and remains optional.

Use this source only if the provider and water system match your bill. Other suppliers and private wells need their own report or test.
Open official sourceMore about your local water
When you open the report, look for these sections. These are reading prompts, not a list of substances detected in your home.
Disinfection and byproducts
Look for the disinfectant used and any reported chlorine or chloramine residuals, total trihalomethanes (TTHM) and haloacetic acids (HAA5). Keep sample dates and the report’s units with each result.
Metals and minerals
Look for lead and copper tap-sampling results, and any reported arsenic, nitrate, sodium or other minerals. A tap-sampling percentile describes a group of sampled homes, not the result at your own faucet.
PFAS and additional monitoring
Some utilities publish PFAS monitoring separately. Check the sample year and detection or reporting limits. “Not detected” means below a stated limit, not a measured zero.
Hardness and home testing
Hardness may appear in a separate utility FAQ or water chemistry sheet. Use a finished-water figure for your system, then confirm your incoming water before selecting optional softening.
Hardness, with the right context.
Start with your filtration needs. Add a softener only if confirmed hardness or scale makes it useful for your home.
MyTapWater lists a regional estimate for DeSoto County. Treatment, blending and service areas can change what reaches your home. Use this figure as context, then confirm hardness with your supplier or an incoming-water test.

Softening is an optional choice for scale and water feel.
A filter, a softener, or both?
Choose the job you need done. Size comes next, based on water use and peak flow.
Whole-home filter
For whole-home filtration goals. Match the exact system’s performance claims to the substances you want to address.
A filter alone does not replace a hardness-removing softener.
Whole-home softener
Optional for hard-water scale and water feel. A softener removes hardness minerals; it is not a general contaminant-removal system.
A softener does not replace a filter selected for a specific contaminant.
Filter + softener
Choose both when filtration and hardness are separate priorities. You can start with the filter in the home-matching flow.
Both units require maintenance, space and a suitable installation.
Proposed pricing. Installation, shipping and tax are additional. Purchases are paused during the pilot. You hire and pay your plumber directly.
For drinking water alone, a suitable kitchen-tap filter may be enough. Keep working equipment that already meets your goal. Wells, shared plumbing and unusually high demand need a separate assessment. No Clearhouse system is claimed to remove every substance in this report. Source
Choose equipment using model-specific performance evidence and maintain it as instructed. Removing disinfectant throughout a home also changes microbial protection in the plumbing. Source
Your water report is the start. Your home decides the fit.
A few household details help narrow the size. Your street address is optional, and “I’m not sure” is always an option.
- Confirm the name on your water bill.
- Share bathrooms, household size and existing equipment.
- Choose a system. Hire your own plumber.

Common questions
Which water report applies to my DeSoto County home?
The local sources below include DeSoto County Utilities. This is a starting list, not a map of every utility service area in DeSoto County. If a different supplier appears on your bill, request that supplier’s report.
Where do I get the full water report?
Check the utility name and water system on your bill, then use the matching official link above. If your provider is not listed, ask it for its consumer confidence report. A ZIP code or county name alone cannot identify your water system.
Is a water softener required?
No. Softening is optional and is a separate decision from filtration. Use a home hardness test and your preferences about scale and water feel; your plumber confirms equipment size and settings.
Does this report test my home?
No. Utility reports describe particular systems and sample periods. Plumbing, service lines and treatment already in a home can change the result at the tap.
What if my home uses a private well?
A public utility report does not describe a private well. Use a test from your own well and discuss the results with your local health department before choosing treatment.
Will one whole-home filter remove everything listed?
No. Select equipment by its specific tested or certified reduction claims and rated flow. A long contaminant list is not evidence that a particular system removes every item.
Sources & methodology
We summarize selected provider records from MyTapWater and link official utility sources. Test dates are retained. Regional hardness estimates are clearly separated from utility guidance. Missing data is not treated as a non-detection, and one provider’s results are not applied to every home in a county.
Clearhouse sells water treatment equipment and is not a utility or testing laboratory. Report presence alone does not establish a health risk, a need for treatment or a product’s removal performance.
