Hello folks: What/where is the cleanest consumer water source in the Indy area?

Bottled? Springs or wells? Home filters?

RO water systems. Supposed to be the same systems used in stores to fill gallon to 5 gallon containers. I don't believe the stuff manufacturers put out about those pitcher of systems you attach to a sink faucet. Not enough filter to properly do the job.

Not in the Indy area, but around Attica there is a spring that is 99.9999% pure according to the owner. He ships tanker truckloads of it up to Kentland to a bottling plant.

You should be getting CLEAN FREE water from Illinois since the feds are paying for their infrastructure.

I believe Aldi's sells that water.

My unfiltered well water from a few counties outside Indy tests better than my city water from one of the donut counties...

Same with ours. I filter our municipal tap water through a "decent " filter for coffee and the dog's water. But I still don't like how it smells or tastes by itself. I drink purified water from a bottle for hydration.

I should have said they are both softened water, but I think that's a given for anywhere in central Indiana.

We added an RO system at our rural place. The water it puts out is amazing - crystal clear ice cubes from the fridge even.

Our city water is softened, but even after its filtered I still think it tastes like crap. Our rural water is a well @ 165' in Owen county rock. It is unsoftened and tastes great. We got really lucky with this well; not any iron or sulfur. Our future plan is to run it through a 3 stage filtration system.

A little north of Indy, Flowing Well Park in Carmel. Water is tested monthly, and the results are on their website.

Flowing Well Park

Visit Carmel's artesian well at Flowing Well Park! While you're there, hike the wooded trail or stomp through Cool Creek!

RO is a good system

In the event local water fails, I have a backup. From stuff I've found around this spring I think it's been in use since the territory was settled.

I have an Aquasana whole house filtration system along with a on demand waterdrop ro system that serves fridge and kitchen sink. We really like the waterdropfilter.com

Wasn’t the free tap blocked permanently a few years ago?
