While many districts only act after discovering contamination, Indian Springs School District took a different approach. In 2022, they invested in Noah’s automated flushing system across six schools—not in response to a crisis, but to prevent one.
Like many districts, Indian Springs recognized the growing risks around stagnant water and lead exposure—especially in aging buildings with inconsistent water use. With federal attention increasing (EPA’s Lead and Copper Rule Revisions, funding for infrastructure upgrades), the district sought to get ahead of the issue before it became one.
They didn’t want to wait for failed test results, public pressure, or student risk to force a reaction.
Indian Springs partnered with Noah to install 48 auto-flushing devices across 6 buildings, targeting the most at-risk fountains and endpoints.
The goal was clear: create a preventative flushing protocol that would keep water moving, reduce the risk of lead and Legionella, and give families peace of mind—before they ever had to ask.
Though no pre-testing was performed, Indian Springs now benefits from:
