Andover plumbing systems
Hardness measured 37 mg/L as CaCO3, magnesium 2.4 ppm, and total dissolved solids 210 ppm. Distribution system pH ran 8.2 to 9.2, above the 6.5-8.5 secondary range, because the pH of water entering the distribution system is adjusted higher for corrosion control purposes.
In April 2022 the Town of Andover entered into a Voluntary Administrative Consent Order to fully remove lead service lines and investigate all services of unknown material composition. The town has removed 206 lead service lines since 2022, completed the unknown-material investigation, and reports that as of December 31, 2025 only 5 lead or galvanized-requiring-replacement service lines remain. Homeowners and tenants with such a service are notified on a routine basis.
2025 lead and copper sampling from 38 homes with a lead service line or lead solder produced a 90th percentile of 0 ppb for lead against a 15 ppb action level, and 59 ppb for copper against a 1,300 ppb action level. Treatment adjustments, including increasing pH entering the distribution system, were implemented to limit lead leaching from lead-lined services and lead solder.
Sodium measured 55 ppm against the MassDEP 20 ppm guideline, attributed to discharge from use and improper storage of sodium-containing de-icing compounds or water softening agents. Chloride measured 73 ppm.
