Corrosion
We take many steps to prevent pipe corrosion.
We follow of Department of Health guidelines, including:
- Adding a chemical called ortho polyphosphate to your water.
- This chemical prevents water line corrosion.
- We maintain an ortho phosphate concentration of 0.4 parts per million.
- Reducing the acidity of the water from the Mississippi River.
- We maintain a pH of 8.8 to 9.0 to keep the water from being corrosive.
