Where this utility stands now.
Denver Water says its address map can show whether a home is one of the estimated 60000 to 64000 homes with a possible lead service line, replacements are planned neighborhood by neighborhood with a longer outlook from 2026 to 2031, and off-schedule replacements use a separate 3800 dollar reimbursement path rather than the utility's no-direct-charge scheduled replacement workflow.

Cost route status
low confidence
Public/private assumptions stay on the replacement-cost route.
The anatomy of the local handoff.
Next step
Use the official utility lookup before making any replacement decision.
Next step
Separate public-side responsibility from private-side responsibility.
Next step
Use a program, cost, filter, or transaction page only after the inventory path is clear.
Replacement support stays secondary to the record.
Program or cost guidance only becomes meaningful after the utility's own lookup, inventory status, and notice framing are clear for the address.
Use the utility page and official lookup first. Cost or support pages should not outrank the utility record.
Keep public-side responsibility and private-side responsibility separate from the start.
This utility is still partly narrative-only, so address-level confirmation matters more than generic interpretation.
