The Woodlands, Texas's Home for Water Softeners, Water Filters,
& Water Delivery

Tap water in The Woodlands, Texas, meets federal and state safety standards, meaning it is legally safe to drink. However, it contains contaminants such as disinfection byproducts (haloacetic acids and trihalomethanes) and nitrates, which exceed health guidelines set by organizations like the Environmental Working Group (EWG). Prolonged exposure to these contaminants has been linked to potential health risks, such as cancer and developmental issues.

The most recent The Woodlands Water Quality Report showed an average hardness of 180 ppm, which is considered very hard.

Recent sampling conducted at The Woodlands’ water treatment plants detected the presence of PFAS chemicals. The EPA is in the process of setting new MCL (maximum contaminant levels), which range from 4 to 10 parts per trillion. In numbers, that would be 0.00000000004 for PFOA and PFOS, individually to 0.0000000001 for PFNA, PFHxS, and HFPO-DA (GenX Chemicals). As you can see in the water quality report, many samples do not meet these standards. Click here to learn more about our whole house PFAS filtration systems.
