Water Softener and Filtration in Franklin Park, IL
Franklin Park's 2025 Village report says the community has purchased Lake Michigan water directly from the City of Chicago since the 1950s. We help Franklin Park homeowners consider whole-home water-treatment options after discussing their goals, plumbing, and installation space. A utility report describes the public system. It is not a reading from one home's tap, where plumbing, fixtures, sample location, and existing treatment can change the experience.
For 2025 lead monitoring, the report lists a 90th-percentile lead result of 8.18 ppb and zero sites above the 15 ppb action level.
This report does not publish a hardness figure. Ask us to test your water instead of using a guessed number.
This municipal Consumer Confidence Report describes the public water system and its reported sampling. It is not a measurement of conditions, plumbing materials, contaminants, hardness, or treatment needs at a particular Franklin Park home.
The 2020-2024 ACS estimate puts the median year built for Franklin Park housing units at 1957, a mid-century housing era. That is context for discussing plumbing access, fixture age, and updates at a specific address, not a condition report for any one home.

The Village's 2025 Water Quality Report states that Franklin Park has purchased Lake Michigan water directly from the City of Chicago since the 1950s. That identifies the public supply source, while conditions at a specific Franklin Park home can still be affected by its own plumbing and fixtures.
What does the latest Franklin Park report say about lead monitoring?

Yes. A tank or tankless reverse-osmosis option for the kitchen can be included only as an add-on to whole-home work. We will review installation space and the home's plumbing before recommending a setup.
