Nothing is
more basic to the life and health of a community than the quality of its
drinking water. That’s why Mayfield Electric & Water Systems is committed to providing a safe, abundant supply of water to meet
customers’ needs and the growing needs of our community.
The three basic steps to the story of water supply are source, treatment, and
distribution. The source of water for most people in North America is
public water supplies; usually metropolitan water systems. We turn on our
tap, and the water is there; unfortunately,
there are many areas of the world where water is not so easily come by.
The second step of water supply is treatment. A multi-step treatment
process ensures safe, high-quality drinking water is the end product. Water treatment helps
nature purify water and keeps pollution out of our water supplies. After
water is cleaned it is stored for later use; either in elevated tanks or open or
covered reservoirs.
Lastly, water is distributed to you the customer through a network of
underground pipes. Included in the price you pay for water are charges for
treatment and distribution.
Mayfield Electric & Water Systems takes great interest in the city of Mayfield and
we strive to provide quality water service at the lowest possible cost.
