As a homeowner, it is critical to ensure your water is of the best quality. Having contaminated drinking water can put you and your family at risk, so it is essential to know the steps you need to take to test your water for contaminants – and when to begin treating your water based on the results.
What Contaminants Are Typically Found in Connecticut’s Water?
As experts have continued to create newer, more efficient techniques for filtering tap water, Connecticut’s water has become safer overall. However, individual home water contamination remains a real and present problem. Water contaminants vary from region to region, but the most common water contaminants in Connecticut include:
- Coliform bacteria

Drinking water with a high level of any of these contaminants can be linked to serious health concerns, which is why it is very important to test your water regularly.
