City water brief
What to know about Woodbury water
Woodbury operates municipal wells and temporary/interim PFAS treatment while its permanent treatment project is built. See the city's current water report and treatment updates.
Woodbury is home to A.J. Alberts at 7975 Afton Road, and owner Steve Grohn lives in Woodbury. Service calls, estimates and free basic water testing all take place at the customer's home.
Woodbury documents temporary and interim PFAS treatment while construction of its permanent plant continues. The city expects the permanent plant to be operational in 2028. Source-well results and regional history do not establish the quality of water at an individual tap. Use the city's current report and relevant household testing when considering treatment.
PFAS source and testing information for Woodbury
City-specific PFAS information reviewedWoodbury reports health advisories affecting nine of its 20 source wells and treatment before affected water enters distribution. Source-well results are not the same as treated tap-water results. Check the city's current monitoring information.

"Ryan was professional and very diligent in checking that the shower faucet was working properly after installation. He did not bolt for the door the second he finished the job. He worked clean wearing shoe protection and cleaning up everything after he finished. The price was reasonable. 1s time I have used AJ Alberts will definitely call them in the future."

"New service - AJ Alberts installed two toilets and a kitchen faucet. Kevin Lundell was wonderful to work with. His recommendations were spot on and he did a timely job of installation. Highly recommend...."
Roger Green
★★★★★
"My house is getting to be old and so I have found it necessary to hire AJ Alberts Plumbing five times in the past five years for various repairs. Their employees have always impressed me with their politeness, knowledge, good advice, and diligence, and the quality of their work has consistently been excellent. I am happy to report that my experience with master plumber Kevin these past couple of days regarding a laundry tub pipe leak has also been very favorable."

How to use Woodbury water information
Use the city references above to identify the right questions, not to diagnose the water at a specific address. Confirm the supplying utility or private well, review current notices, and choose testing that measures the concern you actually have.
Choose treatment only after the concern is defined
Compare the exact equipment's documented reduction claims and maintenance requirements. A basic hardness reading does not measure PFAS, and a PFAS source-water history does not establish the result at a household tap.
Local water sources, checked 2026-09-18:
MDH home-softening guidance explains why softening depends on actual hardness and household needs.
Common Water Issues We Solve
The appropriate test or equipment inspection depends on the concern. Our free basic water test does not measure PFAS or establish that water is safe to drink. PFAS analysis is a separate paid laboratory service.
Hardness and Scale
13.5 gpg. Woodbury publishes a 13.5-grain reference. Confirm the actual reading and any existing treatment at the home. Hard water can contribute to mineral buildup. Confirm actual hardness and any treatment already in place before deciding whether to use a softener.
PFAS Testing and Information
A.J. Alberts offers separate paid laboratory PFAS testing for municipal-water and private-well customers. We collect and submit the sample and explain the report. Confirm the test scope, price, and turnaround when scheduling; PFAS is not included in the free basic water test. A regional history does not establish the level at your tap.
Drinking Water
Start with the current utility report or appropriate laboratory results for a private well. Select treatment for a defined concern and check the exact model's reduction claims and maintenance requirements.
Aging Plumbing and Equipment
Check the equipment model, installation history, maintenance and current symptoms. The age of a house does not establish the age or condition of its plumbing equipment.
Free In-Home Water Test
Our free basic in-home water test checks hardness, iron, chlorine, pH, alkalinity, and total dissolved solids, with nitrate testing for private wells. It does not measure PFAS or certify that water is safe to drink.
