Park Rapids, MN - Boil Water Order Lifted

Park Rapids Water Warning Lifted

The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) lifted the boil order on Park Rapids’ municipal drinking water late Monday afternoon.

“Everything’s clean. The tests came back negative,” public works supervisor Scott Burlingame said to the public at a city hall meeting near 3:30 p.m. .  Mayor
Nancy Carroll stated that they will now be chlorinating the water supply in hopes of avoiding any necessity of restricting use of city water in the future.

Hospitals, Schools, Grocery Stores, Restaurants and the city of Park Rapids were all affected by this.  Residents were told to boil the city water before using it for ANYTHING. You can read the full story about this at

We feel that people should know that this WILL occur and occurs very
frequently with city water supplies (you can do a simple Google search for "city water supply contamination" and come up with over 2 MILLION results!)  All of the schools, hospitals and restaurants (and more importantly your homes and family) could have used a water purification system instead of having to boil all their water or not use any water at all.  You can NEVER be sure of what exactly is in your city water supply, FILTER the water and be safe! 

As professional as I like to keep our reports here at AirAndAqua.com, I can not stress to you enough that in my personal opinion I can not stand city water.  How it tastes.  How it looks.
When you can actually SEE pieces of toilet paper and other waste in your water you know something is just not right!

Do right by your family and for yourself.  FILTER / PURIFY / CLEAN your water ON YOUR OWN, only YOU are to make sure that your families water is safe to drink and stop relying and blindly trusting your city and their water cleaning tactics!  We KNOW what works and want to pass the knowledge on to you, please feel free to browse our Water Information Page for more information on water, what's in it that is so bad and how to get rid of it!
