Tampa Water Department employees all have photo ID cards and never ask to enter
your home. They are not allowed to do so. If someone asks to enter your home, they are not from the Tampa
Water Department.
Companies that offer "free" home water tests may be trying to sell
you water treatment products you don't need. The Tampa Water Department constantly
tests and treats your water to make sure it is superior to all federal
requirements for safe drinking water.
Don't be pressured into making a hurried decision. Take time to think it over
or talk with someone you trust. Don't ever give your credit card number to someone you don't know.
Sellers may say they need the number for verification, then use it to make unauthorized charges to your account.
Be suspicious if you're told that an in-home test has detected pollution or
contamination in your water. In-home tests are rarely able to detect harmful
substances. Tests that make tap water "change color" may fool you
into thinking your water is unhealthy when it's perfectly safe.
If you have any questions about water quality, call (813) 274-8121 and we'll send
you the latest water quality report explaining how we keep Tampa's water safe. Or

quality report with adobe acrobat reader.
