Drinking water in 01609
One supply zone, water supplier: Wasserversorgung Riesa/Großenhain GmbH (WRG).
How to read the share of the parametric value
Several samples per year: for chemical parameters the mean value is given, for microbiological ones the highest measured value. There the parametric value is zero — a single finding would disappear in the average, and it is precisely that finding which is the information. Which reference applies is stated in the last column of the table.
Assigned via the water supplier — the exact supply zone boundary within the postcode is not yet linked.
No date is given for these values. The water supplier publishes the analysis without a sampling date and without a report date. When the water was examined is not apparent from the source — we do not add a date and we do not estimate one. What is stated is therefore only when we retrieved the document.

Frequent questions about postcode 01609
- How hard is the water in Postcode 01609?
- Wasserversorgung Riesa/Großenhain GmbH (WRG) publishes a total hardness of 11.6 °dH for the supply zone Röderaue (hardness range medium). The hardness range is a classification under the German Detergents and Cleaning Products Act (soft below 8,4 °dH, medium 8,4 to 14 °dH, hard above that) and not a quality verdict — it indicates how much calcium and magnesium is dissolved in the water. Basis: Publication by the water supplier, retrieved on 11/07/2026.
- How much nitrate is in the drinking water in Postcode 01609?
- Wasserversorgung Riesa/Großenhain GmbH (WRG) publishes a nitrate value of 35,10 mg/L for the supply zone Röderaue. The statutory parametric value is 50 mg/l; the measured value represents 70 % of the parametric value. Basis: Publication by the water supplier, retrieved on 11/07/2026.
- Who supplies the drinking water in Postcode 01609?
- Wasserversorgung Riesa/Großenhain GmbH (WRG). The values shown here come from the supply zone Röderaue and apply to the water the supplier delivers. What happens between the building connection and the tap — in old lead pipes, for example — is not covered by these analyses; information on that is provided by owners, the health authority or an examination by an accredited laboratory.
