London Water Treatment Plant Undergoes Major Upgrade to Improve Water Quality

London, OH — Exciting news from the Mid-Ohio Water and Sewer District! As part of its ongoing commitment to providing safe and reliable water to the community, the District is installing a new lime slaker at the London Water Treatment Plant. This state-of-the-art upgrade is set to enhance the efficiency and quality of the water treatment process, ensuring a sustainable and high-quality water supply for years to come.

What is a Lime Slaker?
The lime slaker plays a critical role in softening water. It mixes lime with water, creating a solution that reacts with minerals such as calcium and magnesium—key contributors to water hardness. The reaction forms harmless particles that are removed during treatment, resulting in softer, more user-friendly water for customers.

Transition Period: What to Expect
During the transition to the new system, residents may notice slightly elevated levels of water hardness from December 2, 2024, to December 13, 2024. However, the Mid-Ohio Water and Sewer District assures the public that the water will remain safe for use and meet all EPA regulations for drinking water quality.

Commitment to Quality and Transparency
This upgrade reflects the District’s dedication to improving water infrastructure while keeping residents informed. The project marks a significant step forward in providing a consistent, reliable, and high-quality water supply to the London community.

Contact for Questions or Concerns
The District appreciates the community’s patience and understanding as this important improvement is completed. For questions or concerns, residents are encouraged to contact the Mid-Ohio Water and Sewer District at 740-845-1707.

This investment in infrastructure underscores the District's mission to serve the community better, ensuring that every household and business receives the highest standard of water quality. Thank you for your continued support as these upgrades are implemented!
