Water
Providing high-quality drinking water since 1900!
Water Rates
Our unique production and distribution system helps keep costs down for consumers as shown here—significantly lower than nearby cities in Iowa. We’ve got great water rates that are below the national and state averages.
Water Quality
MPW’s water surpasses all state and federal regulations, all the time. With every water staff member licensed through the Iowa DNR, we perform over 14,000 water sample tests each year, continually monitoring and ensuring the quality of the water we deliver to your home.
Water Delivery
While we maintain and repair water distribution mains, water service lines that connect to those mains are privately owned by you, the customer. Repairing or replacing water service lines can be confusing and create unexpected costs—we’ve created some helpful information and a solution to help customers pay for repairs.
Water Protection
Designed to protect our community’s tap water from accidental contamination, our back flow prevention program requires a certified technician to complete testing on back flow devices and review of test results.
Funding a Water Service Line Repair
Unexpected water service line repairs can be costly. Learn about financing options, assistance programs, and resources available to help cover repair expenses and get your water service restored quickly and affordably.
