The Village of Plainfield constructed and started operation of the water system in 1898. Since that time, the Village has been committed to providing high quality water service to our residents. In April of 2004, the community began receiving treated Lake Michigan water as our source supply.
The Plainfield water system currently consists of one lake water metering station, 5 miles of water transmission main, one pressure station, one treatment facility, five water towers, 3,300 fire hydrants, and over 225 miles of water distribution main. (Three groundwater wells remain on standby status to be utilized in the event of an emergency).
Water samples are analyzed on a daily basis to ensure water quality. We provide drinking water to over 40,000 people in the Village and maintain sufficient water levels, in the towers, to provide fire protection for our residential, commercial, and industrial users.
