From EPA SDWIS. A clean violation history means no enforcement action was recorded; it does not cover contaminants without a limit.
No result is not a pass. Your utility's annual water quality report may list them, and a certified lab test covers your own tap.
Your tap can differ from the city record
The record describes water leaving treatment and samples across the system. Pipes, solder and fixtures inside a building can add lead the record can’t see, especially in older buildings with lead service lines.

Choose your situation
Older buildings may have lead service lines, solder or fixtures. New Windsor Consolidated Wd’s utility reported 1,019 service lines of unknown material in EPA’s inventory, so only a tap test tells you. Test first-draw water, then filter if needed.
3 of 29 PFAS tested were detected in New Windsor Consolidated Wd’s record (PFHxS 3.2 ng/L, PFHxA 3.8 ng/L and PFPeA 4.5 ng/L). If PFAS matters to you, a filter certification names each compound it covers.
Most utilities keep chlorine or chloramine in the pipes. A carbon filter certified for taste and odor reduces either; your utility can tell you which it uses.
Your utility’s annual water quality report usually lists hardness; a test strip also measures it.
Reverse osmosis reduces many dissolved contaminants, including lead and minerals, at a single faucet, with some water sent to drain.

Each result tagged by reference type: MCL, action level, screening level or aesthetic.
- 04Compare to the named reference
Every value sits against its own reference, never a blended one.
