Drinking Water Inspectorate (DWI) enforces the UK drinking water quality regulations in England and Wales. Figures it classifies or regulates on this page cover England and Wales only.

What this record covers

Every row below is a total hardness figure for one area South Staffordshire Water supplies, read from a list its publisher publishes in full. 35 supply zones, read from the company's own annual zone reports.

South Staffordshire Water publishes these reports under Cambridge Water and South Staffs Water, so the name on a report is not always the name on your bill. Each row below is sourced to the report it came from.

What South Staffordshire Water publishes and this page will not

  • South Staffordshire Water publishes a figure for Bluntisham and we will not print it: its own report contradicts itself, with the column the headline figure comes from disagreeing with the other cells on the same row, re-read on 20 September 2026. Neither reading is publishable, so we would rather tell you that than pick one.

Where these numbers come from

136.3–351.8 mg/L as CaCO₃ across 35 areas, published by Cambridge Water and South Staffs Water.
