CTWC - Unionville System

NOTE: CTWC - Unionville System purchases water from Metropolitan District Commission which is required to test for silver. Sample information shown below was taken by Metropolitan District Commission.

Silver occurs naturally in surface and groundwater and can be added to water as a biocide that inhibits growth of bacteria and algae. Increasingly, the use of antimicrobial nano-sized silver particles in consumer products contributes to silver in water sources used for drinking water.
