Property water checklist

Confirm the current account

Match the named water system and any system ID on the current bill, closing record or official notice before applying its data to the property.

Check current notices first

When a compliance entry or advisory exists, confirm its present status and exact scope with the operator or regulator before relying on an annual report.

Find untreated cold water

Locate a sample point before any carbon filter, softener or dedicated-faucet reverse-osmosis system.

Compare fixtures

Determine whether a concern affects one tap, every cold tap or only hot water.

Separate non-potable water

Do not use lake, pond, reclaimed-irrigation or golf-course observations to describe household drinking water.

Use the right test

Use untreated-water measurements for treatment decisions and a certified laboratory for a health-specific concern.
