Local Questions

Bartlett water-treatment questions

Town FAQ source: Village of Bartlett 2025 Annual Water-Quality Report (2025)

Where does Bartlett’s municipal water come from?

Bartlett’s 2025 Annual Water-Quality Report says that all of its water came from Lake Michigan in 2025, pumped from Chicago through the DuPage Water Commission system. It also says Bartlett’s active wells are used only in an emergency.

What treatment does Bartlett perform locally?

The report says that since the Village switched to Lake Michigan water in May 2019, Bartlett only boosts chlorine at its facility. The report also describes Chicago treatment and the DuPage Water Commission delivery system.

Does the Bartlett report tell me what is in the water at my house?

No. The report describes Bartlett’s municipal system and reported samples. It does not test a particular home, where plumbing, service-line materials, fixtures, and local conditions may differ.

Can you recommend treatment for a private well in Bartlett?

Bartlett’s report says the Village’s active wells are for emergency use, while the municipal supply came from Lake Michigan in 2025. For a private well, we consider treatment only after laboratory results or a confirmed field test; the municipal report does not establish conditions in a private well.
