A clean record — with one caveat
Merrian Crater's public supply meets federal drinking-water standards on record. That covers the contaminants the EPA requires utilities to report — it does notmeasure hardness, lead from your home's plumbing, or what happens between the treatment plant and your tap.
Local water here is very hard. Hardness drives scale on fixtures, shorter appliance life, and dry skin and hair.
The only way to know what's in your water is to test it. A local installer does it free, in about 30 minutes, with no upfront cost and no obligation to buy.
