The current official water report for the Hawthorn Woods system lists Kildeer Estates and Wentworth of Kildeer among its service areas. We help Kildeer homeowners consider whole-home treatment around their property, plumbing, and goals—not assumptions from a community-wide report. A utility report describes the public system. It is not a reading from one home's tap, where plumbing, fixtures, sample location, and existing treatment can change the experience.
The 2025 report says this system uses groundwater from two deep wells in Lake County’s Galesville aquifer and that naturally occurring radium is removed by ion exchange before distribution.
The official 2025 Consumer Confidence Report identifies the system as public water supply ID IL0975040.
The report says the system’s water comes from two 1,300-foot-deep wells in the Galesville aquifer in Lake County and that ion exchange removes naturally occurring radium before the water enters distribution.
This report does not publish a hardness figure. Ask us to test your water instead of using a guessed number.
This is a system-wide report for PWSID IL0975040, not a measurement of water at a particular Kildeer home. It names specific Kildeer service areas and does not establish service or tap-water conditions at every Kildeer address; plumbing, fixtures, existing equipment, and sample location can affect conditions at a home.
The 2020-2024 ACS estimate puts the median year built for Kildeer housing units at 1992, a late twentieth-century housing era. That is context for discussing plumbing access, fixture age, and updates at a specific address, not a condition report for any one home.
A practical setup begins with the home’s plumbing, installation space, and priorities. A published system report alone does not prescribe equipment for your property.
Whole-home water softenersFor homes seeking a softening approach after an in-home assessment.
Whole-home carbon filtrationAn option to discuss for household taste, odor, or chlorine preferences after reviewing the home’s goals and setup.
Salt-free conditioningAn alternative for selected applications when it fits the plumbing and homeowner’s objectives.
Well-water treatment evaluationConsidered only after laboratory results or a confirmed on-site field test; a municipal system report is not a well-water test.
Kitchen reverse osmosisTank and tankless kitchen reverse-osmosis options are available only as an add-on to a whole-home installation.
No. The report is for public water supply ID IL0975040 and specifically lists Kildeer Estates and Wentworth of Kildeer among its service areas. It does not establish service or water conditions at every Kildeer address.
What source does the Kildeer-area report describe?
The 2025 report says the system uses two 1,300-foot-deep groundwater wells in Lake County’s Galesville aquifer. It also says ion exchange removes naturally occurring radium before the water enters distribution.
Does the report tell me what is happening at my Kildeer faucet?
Not by itself. It is a system-wide report, not a test from your home. Plumbing, fixtures, existing equipment, and where a sample is taken can affect conditions at a particular tap.
Which whole-home options can be considered for my Kildeer home?
After reviewing your home and goals, available options include whole-home water softeners, whole-home carbon filtration, and salt-free conditioning where it fits. Equipment is not selected from a community-wide report alone.
