Water Softener and Filtration in New Lenox, IL
New Lenox's current municipal report identifies treated Lake Michigan surface water as the Village's primary source, with Village wells maintained for future emergency backup. That system-level context is a starting point—not a reading of water at your home. 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.
