What's in Ridgefield's Water?
The numbers your water utility reports, in plain sight
Ridgefield's tap water comes from Aquarion Water Company of Connecticut (Ridgefield System), serving 7,415 people. In the most recent reported data, 34 contaminants were detected, and 16 of them exceed EWG health guidelines. Here's what that means for your house.
Reported levels, 2018-2024
16 contaminants above EWG health guidelines
| Contaminant | Detected level | Over EWG guideline | Potential effect |

To be fair to the utility: these levels comply with federal legal limits where limits exist. What they exceed are EWG's stricter health guidelines, which are based on current health research rather than regulatory compromise. Eight more contaminants exceed guidelines beyond the eight shown here. See the full utility report at EWG's Tap Water Database. Data period 2018-2024. Figures read 2026-08-27.

The part that matters for your house
Utility numbers are the starting point, not your answer
These are system-wide averages. What comes out of your tap depends on your pipes, your neighborhood, and whether you are on city water or a private well. The only way to know what your family is actually drinking is to test the water at your own faucet.
ClearCrest Water Solutions runs that test free anywhere in Ridgefield, explains the results in plain English, and only then recommends treatment, sized to what your water actually shows.
