Would you use a system that helps monitor your home’s water quality?(All welcome, 2–3 min)

I’m a college student working on a project about water quality and I’d really appreciate some feedback from homeowners.

We’re designing a system that helps people better understand potential water quality issues in their area. It wouldn’t directly test for specific contaminants, but instead would:

  • Use simple in-home signals (like cloudiness or temperature)
  • Pull in local data (weather, water advisories, etc.)
  • Combine that with anonymous reports from nearby households
  • Show a community map of water quality concerns
  • Send alerts if something unusual is happening nearby

The goal is to give people earlier awareness and better information, not replace official testing.

We made a short survey (takes ~2–3 minutes) to understand:

  • How concerned people are about their water quality
  • Whether this kind of system would actually be useful
  • Any concerns (privacy, accuracy, etc.)
