Citizens Water — Indianapolis

2025 report; individual sample dates shown

For Citizens Water’s Indianapolis system (IN5249004). Treatment-plant data are shared with Morgan County; the distribution and tap results below are the Indianapolis entries.

In drinking water, ppm ≈ mg/L, ppb ≈ µg/L and ppt ≈ ng/L. Calculated hardness in grains per US gallon (gpg) = mg/L as CaCO₃ ÷ 17.118, rounded to one decimal. ND means below the reporting limit, not zero.

MCL is an enforceable contaminant limit; MRDL is a disinfectant limit. A secondary guideline concerns aesthetics. TTHM/HAA5 compliance uses locational running annual averages; read the utility’s notices as well as individual results.

PFAS results are compound-specific. Source monitoring, entry-point samples and tap tests are different. A detected result does not identify every PFAS compound or establish the level at your home. Read the original report for context and current utility notices. EPA PFAS benchmarks and implementation ↗

More about your local water

What this means for your home

Older plumbing can affect tap lead even when the system’s percentile is below an action level. Use a tap test for a plumbing-specific concern, and evaluate filtration and softening as separate jobs.

Citizens Water’s Indianapolis data are useful for homes on that system. Marion County is a geographic boundary, not a single water service area. Choose the name on your bill; a private well needs its own test.

Sources and methodology

We keep each utility’s results separate, show the reported sample year, and distinguish averages, maxima and tap-sampling percentiles. Hardness classifications use USGS ranges. Missing data stays unknown.
