Water Division

Our Water System

The Town is fortunate to draw from high-quality aquifers, meaning the water requires minimal treatment. The Town produces its water from three wells within the Verde limestone formation at the base of Mingus Mountain. Two wells are pumped at the Mongini Well and Water Treatment Site, which sits on the northwestern side of Town along the Prescott National Forest boundary. This site supplies over 2,000 services with water. The third well is located on the Verde River Estates subdivision which supplies over 60 services with water.

The Town's water system includes 3 wells, 4 Water Storage Tanks, 2 Booster Stations and 6 Pressure Regulating sites. These processes and infrastructures ensure the delivery of potable water not only at safe levels, but also with water quality that surpasses state and federal regulations. These pumps and booster stations supply water throughout the City’s more than 60 miles of water main pipes. Tank elevations, pumping, and controls are managed by our production staff and supplemented by our Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition software (SCADA).

System maintenance includes water line repairs, service line repairs, fire hydrant inspections, isolation valve inspections, hydrant and valve replacement/repairs, new water service installations, meter upgrades, meter repairs and response to customer service requests.
