City water brief
Burnsville's municipal water comes from a city treatment plant that blends groundwater from city wells with water drawn from the Kraemer limestone quarry, a supply Burnsville shares with Savage. Homes on a private well should use well-specific laboratory results.
Burnsville is part of A.J. Alberts' south metro service area for water softeners, filtration, water heater replacement and planned plumbing work.
Burnsville's treatment plant blends groundwater from city wells with surface water drawn from the Kraemer limestone quarry, a supply the city shares with Savage. The city publishes a hardness range of 23 to 25 grains per gallon, which the USGS scale classes as very hard. The city's annual drinking water report includes a PFAS monitoring section; read the current report for results. Measure hardness at your own tap before sizing a softener; the free basic test does that and does not measure PFAS.

The City of Burnsville's 2017 comprehensive plan review found that most of the city's homes were built in 1980 or earlier, and that many single-family homes are split-level or under two stories. The construction era is a starting point for questions about supply piping, water heater age and existing treatment equipment, not a diagnosis; tell us what you have and what it is doing.

"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."
Larry Kallas
"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."
