Frequently Asked Questions for Water in Milford, Michigan
Is Milford tap water safe to drink?
Yes, Milford’s tap water meets state and federal safety standards.
However, trace contaminants were detected, including arsenic at 4 ppb, barium at 0.3 ppm, fluoride at 0.71 ppm, sodium at 89 ppm, chlorine residual at 0.34 ppm, total trihalomethanes at 1.9 ppb, haloacetic acids at 1.4 ppb, gross alpha at 1.43 pCi/L, and radium 226 and 228. While these levels are within regulatory limits, some homeowners still choose filtration for added peace of mind.
Is Milford’s water hard?
Yes, Milford’s water is considered very hard. The report lists average hardness at 25 grains per gallon, which is high enough to cause scale buildup, spotting, dry skin, and reduced appliance efficiency. Many homeowners use water softeners to help reduce these hard water effects.
Does Milford’s water contain PFAS (“Forever Chemicals”)?
The screenshots provided do not show PFAS results for Milford. While PFAS monitoring is a concern in many Michigan communities, additional testing information would be needed to confirm whether PFAS compounds were detected in Milford’s water. Many homeowners choose reverse osmosis or advanced carbon filtration systems for added protection.
Does Milford add fluoride to its water?
Yes, Milford’s water contains fluoride. The report lists fluoride at 0.71 ppm, with a range of 0.25 to 1.37 ppm.
What other contaminants are in Milford’s water?
Water quality testing detected several trace contaminants, including:
- Arsenic (4 ppb)
- Barium (0.3 ppm)
- Thallium (0.6 ppb)
- Fluoride (0.71 ppm)
- Sodium (89 ppm)
- Chlorine residual (0.34 ppm)
- Total Trihalomethanes or TTHMs (1.9 ppb)
- Haloacetic Acids or HAA5 (1.4 ppb)
- cis-1,2-Dichloroethene (0.55 ppb)
- Gross Alpha (1.43 pCi/L)
- Radium 226 and 228
- Lead (4 ppb, with 0 samples above the action level)
- Copper (0.1 ppm)
Where does Milford get its water?
Milford’s water comes from two groundwater wells owned by the Village of Milford. The wells are 12-inch and 16-inch diameter wells, both 114 feet deep. They draw from an underground aquifer that extends north toward Moore Lake in Milford Township. The water is pumped to the iron removal plant, filtered to remove naturally occurring iron, then disinfected with chlorine before entering the distribution system.
Should I use a water filter or softener in Milford?
Yes, many Milford homeowners benefit from whole-house water filters, reverse osmosis systems, and water softeners. A water softener is especially helpful because Milford’s water hardness averages 25 grains per gallon. Filtration can also help improve taste, reduce chlorine byproducts, and address trace contaminants that may still be present even when water meets regulatory standards.
Does Milford water have a high total dissolved solids (TDS) level?
The report does not list a specific TDS level, but Milford’s groundwater source contains dissolved minerals such as sodium, iron, calcium, and magnesium.
Where can I get a local water quality report?
You can access the latest water quality information through the Village of Milford.
