The ZIP code it serves
The short answer
2 results are above the health goal. The worst: Uranium, above the health goal. 2 health-based violations since 2016.
What handles itWhat was found
Uranium, arsenic, nitrate and total trihalomethanes (TTHM): New Hampshire’s yearly averages per water system, as CDC’s Environmental Public Health Tracking Network publishes them, 2020 to 2023, with EPA’s 2012 to 2019 file for earlier years.
Chromium (total) and fluoride: EPA’s compliance monitoring file, samples taken from Sept. 15, 2014 to Oct. 7, 2019. Newer results are in the utility’s annual water quality report.
Above the health goal2
Uranium
Comes from the source
14ppb
Highest yearly average, 2020 to 2023
2023 average: 9.0 ppb
Averaged by year, the highest was 14 ppb, in 2021: below EPA’s legal limit of 30 ppb, but above its health goal of zero. In 2023, the latest year on file, it averaged 9.0 ppb. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest yearly average of 17 ppb, in 2015.
What handles it
- NSF/ANSI 58 look for “Uranium”
Arsenic
Comes from the source
3.6ppb
Highest yearly average, 2020 to 2023
2023: not found
Averaged by year, the highest was 3.6 ppb, in 2022: below EPA’s legal limit of 10 ppb, but above its health goal of zero. In 2023, the latest year on file, it wasn’t found. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest yearly average of 2.0 ppb, in 2016.
What handles it
- NSF/ANSI 58 look for “Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=50 ppb Reduction”
- NSF/ANSI 53 look for “Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=50 ppb Reduction”
Below EPA’s limits2
Chromium (total)
Comes from the source
7.0ppb
Highest yearly average, 2014 to 2019
2019: not found
Averaged by year, the highest was 7.0 ppb, in 2016, below EPA’s legal limit of 100 ppb. In 2019, the latest year on file, it wasn’t found in its one sample.
What handles it
- NSF/ANSI 58 look for “Chromium (Hexavalent) Reduction”
- NSF/ANSI 53 look for “Chromium Reduction”
Fluoride
Forms or is added in treatment
0.24ppm
Highest yearly average, 2014 to 2019
Averaged by year, the highest was 0.24 ppm, in 2019, below EPA’s legal limit of 4.0 ppm. That was also the latest year on file.
What handles it
- NSF/ANSI 58 look for “Fluoride Reduction”
- NSF/ANSI 53 look for “Fluoride”
2 compounds tested and not foundBelow the reporting level in every sample. Not found is not the same as zero.
- Nitrate
- Total trihalomethanes (TTHM)
What handles it
A certification covers specific claims, not a whole standard. Look for these claims on the certifier’s listing, not the box. Wording varies a little: NSF writes “Lead Reduction,” WQA just “Lead.”
- NSF/ANSI 53
Claim: Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=50 ppb Reduction
For: Arsenic
Other certifiers’ wording: Arsenic (III) (50 ppb influent level)
- NSF/ANSI 58
Claims: Uranium, Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=50 ppb Reduction
For: Uranium, Arsenic
Other certifiers’ wording: Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=300 ppb Reduction; Arsenic (V) (300 ppb influent level)
At the tap, or for the whole house?
These come with the water itself, so a whole-house system certified for the same claims treats every tap and shower. A filter at the tap treats drinking water for much less. How whole-house systems compare.

What this report can’t tell you
Everything else. Uranium, arsenic, nitrate and total trihalomethanes (TTHM) results here are New Hampshire’s yearly averages as CDC publishes them, from 2020 on, with EPA’s national file for 2012 to 2019. Chromium (total) and fluoride come from EPA’s file alone, which ends in 2019. Iron Wheel MHP’s own annual report, which it must send you every year, has newer results for those and the contaminants this page does not show.
Your own plumbing. Lead results are the 90th percentile across homes the utility samples. Your home’s service line, solder and fixtures decide yours. A certified lab test is the only way to know.
What it means for your health. This page reports what the records show and EPA’s limits and goals; it is not medical advice. If you are worried about a health effect, talk to a doctor or your local health department.
Anything after the latest data. SDWIS data is from 2026 Q3; UCMR 5 didn’t sample this utility; CDC’s yearly averages for New Hampshire cover 2020 to 2023; EPA’s compliance samples are from Sept. 15, 2014 to Oct. 7, 2019.
