Water Supply Testing

Drinking Water

The drinking water to your property may be directly supplied either from:

• a Mains Water Supply (e.g. Yorkshire Water);
•  or from a Private Water Supply (e.g. borehole, spring etc).

Alternatively, you may be supplied with a mains water supply indirectly, (e.g. via a Private Distribution Network), which along with private water supplies are regulated under the Private Water Supplies Regulations 2009.

If you are the owner of a Private Distribution Network, you will be responsible for the pipework and distribution system serving buildings/structures occupied by third parties (as opposed to Yorkshire Water being responsible).

More information is available at Ryedale District Council - Pollution Control - Water.
