8/19/2025
A metal that can leach from old pipes, solder, and fixtures. Current medical guidance holds there is no truly safe level of lead exposure, especially for children and pregnant women.
Iron
Detected: 30 UG/L (ppb)
10/6/2025
Mostly an aesthetic issue (metallic taste, staining) rather than a health concern at typical levels.
Manganese
Detected: 55 UG/L (ppb)
10/6/2025
Mainly a taste/staining concern at typical levels; long-term neurological research at high chronic exposure is ongoing.
Copper, Free
Detected: 60 UG/L (ppb)
8/19/2025
Arsenic
Detected: 2.5 UG/L (ppb)
8/11/2025
Occurs naturally in some groundwater. Long-term exposure above the legal limit (10 ppb) has been linked to increased cancer risk and cardiovascular disease.
Inorganics
Common dissolved minerals and salts, e.g. nitrate, fluoride, chloride
