Frequently Asked Questions for Water in Woodcreek, Texas
Is Woodcreek, TX tap water safe to drink?
Yes, Woodcreek’s tap water meets state and federal drinking water standards. That said, municipal water can still contain disinfectants, byproducts, and trace contaminants that some homeowners would rather reduce at the tap. That is why many households still choose home water treatment even when the water supply remains in compliance.
Where does Woodcreek’s water come from?
Woodcreek’s water supply comes from groundwater sourced from the Evangeline Aquifer. As groundwater moves through soil and rock, it can naturally pick up minerals and other substances that influence water quality.
Does Woodcreek’s use chlorine or chloramine?
Woodcreek uses chlorine as a disinfectant. Recent testing reported an average chlorine residual level of 1.91 mg/L, with levels ranging from 0.41 to 3.84 mg/L. Chlorine is used to control bacteria and microorganisms, but it can also contribute to taste and odor concerns for some households.
Are there disinfection byproducts in Woodcreek’s water?
Yes. Testing detected:
- Total Trihalomethanes (TTHMs): 2.2 ppb
These compounds form when disinfectants react with naturally occurring organic matter in the water. In this report, levels were below EPA limits.
Does Woodcreek water contain lead?
Lead was reported at 0 ppb at the 90th percentile, which is below the federal action level of 15 ppb. While this is a positive result, lead can still vary from home to home because it is typically introduced through plumbing materials, fixtures, or service lines, rather than the water source itself.
Is Woodcreek water hard?
Yes. Woodcreek’s water is considered very hard, with total hardness: 314.5 ppm.
Is fluoride added to Woodcreek’s water?
Fluoride was detected in Wimberley’s water at 1.11 ppm, with reported samples ranging from 0.38 to 1.11 ppm. Fluoride in drinking water is commonly monitored as part of standard water treatment and reporting.
What other contaminants were found in Woodcreek’s water?
Wimberley’s report also detected low levels of several other contaminants, including:
- Barium: 0.0305 ppm
- Chromium: 15 ppb
- Nitrate: 0.11 ppm
- Selenium: 4.1 ppb
- Ethylbenzene: 0.5 ppb
- Xylenes: 0.0029 ppm
- Uranium: 1.1 µg/L
- Gross alpha excluding radon and uranium: 4.4 pCi/L
- Beta/photon emitters: 4.6 pCi/L
These levels were reported within current standards, but some homeowners still prefer to reduce as much as possible in the water they drink and cook with.
Are PFAS or other emerging contaminants found in Woodcreek’s water?
The Wimberley report you provided did not show PFAS results or UCMR contaminant data. That does not necessarily mean those compounds are never a concern. It simply means they were not listed in the report provided here. For homeowners who want more control over emerging contaminants, advanced drinking water filtration is often the next step.
Was there a water quality violation reported in Woodcreek?
Yes. Wimberley reported a Lead Consumer Notice (LCR) violation. According to the report, all lead monitoring results were negative, but the water system did not provide the lead tap water monitoring results to consumers at the tested location within the required 30-day period. The results were mailed after that deadline.
This was a notification and compliance timing issue, not a lead exceedance in the water results themselves. Still, reporting issues like this can make homeowners want more visibility into their own water quality.
