Drinking water in Bad Lauterberg
One supply zone, water supplier: Harz Energie Netz GmbH.
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.

These values are more than a year old. The most recent analysis the water supplier has published for this zone dates from 23/06/2025. We have no newer values — which is why we show the latest available ones rather than none at all. They say nothing about how the water has changed since then.

* Value below the limit of quantification: the actual share of the parametric value is not known; it lies somewhere below the stated upper bound. The marker shows where the limit of quantification of the measurement lies relative to the parametric value.
For trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), the German Drinking Water Ordinance does not specify a parametric value. The comparison is therefore made with the guide value of 60 µg/l issued by the Umweltbundesamt, which has replaced the earlier health-related guidance value of 3 µg/l. A guide value is not a legal maximum but a health-related classification.

Frequently asked questions about drinking water in Bad Lauterberg
- How hard is the water in Bad Lauterberg?
- Harz Energie Netz GmbH publishes a total hardness of 3,5 mmol/L for the supply zone Bad Lauterberg, Kurhaus, Keller, Wasserverteilung Waschbecken — that corresponds to 19.6 °dH. 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: 17.07.2025, retrieved on 27/07/2026.
- How much nitrate is in the drinking water in Bad Lauterberg?
- Harz Energie Netz GmbH publishes a nitrate value of 23,3 mg/L for the supply zone Bad Lauterberg, Kurhaus, Keller, Wasserverteilung Waschbecken. The statutory parametric value is 50 mg/l; the measured value represents 47 % of the parametric value. Basis: 17.07.2025, retrieved on 27/07/2026.
- Who supplies the drinking water in Bad Lauterberg?
- Harz Energie Netz GmbH. The values shown here come from the supply zone Bad Lauterberg, Kurhaus, Keller, Wasserverteilung Waschbecken 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.
