Friend, this is huge – we just released a new update to EWG’s Tap Water Database, adding in two more years of test results. You can use this one-of-a-kind tool to learn about contaminants in YOUR drinking water and what you can do about them.
We’ve worked for months on this update, collecting data from nearly 50,000 water utilities across all 50 states, cataloging over 270 contaminants and pairing all of this data with EWG’s consumer-friendly tips for safer drinking water.
Just head to the homepage and type in your ZIP code to get started. Then make sure to check out these great resources to learn more about the tap water in your home and across the country:
When we compiled 32 million water records from all 50 states, we learned a LOT about drinking water in America. Check out our top findings in this short video.
Once you’ve identified the contaminants of concern in your drinking water, make sure you check out EWG’s Water Filter Guide to find the type of filter that works for you and is certified to remove the contaminants in your tap water.
