The City of South Bend delivers high quality, safe drinking water to your home every single day. This water is free from lead when it leaves the City’s water treatment plants; however, it is possible for it to pick up particles as it travels through your home’s service lines and plumbing fixtures. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency created a sampling protocol to evaluate whether or not your water has lead in it. If your house was built before 1986 and you’re concerned that you may have lead in your water, call 311 today to request your free lead and copper sampling kit.
