ICYMI, August is National Water Quality Month, so we’re feeling extra thankful for Louisville Pure Tap®, the high-quality, safe water that Louisville Water Co. provides to nearly one million people in our community.
Do you know your water, Louisville? Let’s find out:
- Our drinking water comes from the Ohio River.
- Louisville Water Co. first delivered drinking water to our community in 1860.
- Derby City has been recognized multiple times for having the best-tasting tap water in America, thanks to Pure Tap.
- Louisville Water has received zero water quality violations for 16 years in a row and counting. Maybe because scientists perform 200+ drinking water tests every day.
- The iconic 185-ft Louisville Water Tower, recognized as a National Historic Landmark, is undergoing major renovations and will reopen to visitors in 2024.
- For just a penny, you can fill up an 8-oz glass 107 times.
So sip back, relax, and refill your reusable bottles — this month and beyond — with our delicious local water.
