DOING RIGHT BY YOU WATER

We want you to have the best quality drinking water, so that's why the water network is being upgraded in Staffordshire.

HOW THE SCHEME COULDBENEFIT YOU AND YOUR COMMUNITY

WHY ARE WEDOING IT?

To protect customers with lead pipes, water companies put a small amount of safe chemicals call Phosphates in the supply. This coats the inside of your pipe and helps to prevent lead from reaching your water

Everyone in the area shown above on the map get their water from the same borehole, so when we remove all the lead pipes from this area, we can stop this Phosphate dosing together.
