Texas ranks among the highest states for water contamination. Here are the key issues AFW Filters can help you address.
PFAS “Forever Chemicals”
Nearly 50 Texas water utilities — including Fort Worth and Abilene — have reported PFAS levels exceeding new federal EPA limits. These chemicals don’t break down naturally.
High RiskTTHMs (Trihalomethanes)
Texas tops the nation for TTHM violations. Over 700 water systems serving 8.6 million Texans have exceeded the EPA’s legal limit of 80 parts per billion.
High RiskHard Water & Minerals
North Texas sits on limestone and chalk bedrock, creating some of the hardest water in the country. Dallas–Fort Worth averages 140–160 mg/L, damaging pipes and appliances.
Moderate ImpactArsenic
Arsenic occurs naturally in North and West Texas groundwater. Long-term exposure is linked to bladder, lung, and skin cancers.
High RiskAgricultural Runoff
Texas’s vast agricultural regions contribute nitrates, bacteria, and pesticide residue into both surface and ground water sources, affecting rural communities most.
Moderate RiskChlorine & Byproducts
Chlorine used to disinfect water reacts with organic matter to create harmful HAA5 compounds and TTHMs. Dallas water averages 2.97 ppm chlorine residual.
