What handles it

What was found

Arsenic, total trihalomethanes (TTHM), fluoride, haloacetic acids (HAA5), nitrate and chromium (total): Ohio’s own results, samples taken from Jan. 2, 2020 to Oct. 7, 2025, with EPA’s 2012 to 2019 file for earlier years.

Above the health goal1

Arsenic

Above the health goal

1.6ppb

Highest yearly average, 2020 to 2025

2025: not found

Averaged by year, the highest was 1.6 ppb, in 2021: below EPA’s legal limit of 10 ppb, but above its health goal of zero. Its highest single sample was 5.0 ppb. In 2025, the latest year on file, it wasn’t found in any of its four samples. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest yearly average of 4.1 ppb, in 2019.

What handles it

  • NSF/ANSI 58 look for “Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=50 ppb Reduction”
  • NSF/ANSI 53 look for “Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=50 ppb Reduction”

Nitrate

Comes from the source

Below EPA’s limits

0.47ppm

Highest sample; found in 6 of 7

2025, one sample: 0.46 ppm

The highest sample, in 2023, was 0.47 ppm, below EPA’s legal limit of 10 ppm. In 2025, the latest year on file, its one sample was 0.46 ppm. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest sample of 0.23 ppm, in 2019.

What handles it

  • NSF/ANSI 58 look for “Nitrate/Nitrite Reduction”
  • NSF/ANSI 53 look for “Nitrate/Nitrite (30 ppm challenge)”
2 compounds tested and not foundBelow the reporting level in every sample. Not found is not the same as zero.
  • Chromium (total)
  • Lead

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

    Claim: Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=50 ppb Reduction

    For: 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. Arsenic, total trihalomethanes (TTHM), fluoride, haloacetic acids (HAA5), nitrate and chromium (total) results here are Ohio’s own from 2020 on, with EPA’s national file for 2012 to 2019. Loudonville Village’s own annual report, which it must send you every year, has 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; Ohio’s results run from Jan. 2, 2020 to Oct. 7, 2025.

Testing your own tap

Loudonville Village’s results are for the water it sends out. What your own service line, solder and fixtures add shows up only in a test of your tap, by a lab Ohio certifies.
