Water in Houston is Hard
According to our proprietary data, the average total water hardness in Houston is 7.3 grains per gallon (gpg), which falls in the moderately hard range. This means there’s a significant amount of calcium and magnesium in the water here — two minerals that can build up over time and leave behind residue in your pipes, appliances, and fixtures. This buildup can make things less efficient and even shorten the life of your home’s systems if left unchecked.

Houston, TX water sources
A recent analysis by Environment Texas Research and Policy Center reveals significant water quality concerns affecting Texas schools and childcare facilities. The study examined testing data from 1,509 schools and daycare centers submitted to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, finding that 1,175 facilities (78%) reported at least one instance of lead contamination in their drinking water above 1 part per billion – the safety standard recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics.
The findings highlight widespread water quality issues that extend beyond educational facilities, as school water systems often reflect broader municipal water infrastructure challenges. Houston-area school districts have begun addressing these concerns by installing lead-filtering hydration stations, demonstrating the practical need for water treatment solutions in the region. According to the EPA, even low levels of lead exposure can cause learning disabilities, impaired hearing, and damage to the nervous system in children, making effective water filtration systems essential for protecting family health throughout the Houston metropolitan area.

Frequently asked questions
-
Houston’s water averages 7.27 grains per gallon, which falls in the hard category. This hard water can help dry out your hair and may reduce soap effectiveness, making it harder to get a good lather. A water softener can help restore balance to your water, potentially giving you softer, healthier-looking hair and helping improve your daily washing routine.
-
One of the biggest benefits of filtering water is to help reduce harmful contaminants, impurities and chemicals, along with unwanted minerals and bacteria. The filtering process can also lead to a better taste and smell, which encourages hydration and wellness.
-
Water filters and water softeners both help improve water quality by removing certain unwanted materials. Water filters focus on contaminants and chemicals, and often work by forcing water through some kind of barrier to trap debris and allow only cleaner, clearer water to pass through. Water softeners, on the other hand, work more like a magnet, pulling away minerals and impurities that cause hard water.
-
If your water has a strange taste, odor, or discoloration, it might be time to filter it. Other signs include cloudy water, buildup on faucets, or reports of contaminants in your local water supply. The best way to determine whether you need water treatment is to schedule a free water test from our local office in Houston.
-
Reverse osmosis (RO) is a drinking water purification process that helps remove unwanted substances from tap water by pushing water through a special barrier called a semipermeable membrane. This barrier blocks heavy metals (like lead), arsenic, PFAS, chlorine, and chemicals, so only purified water is passed through. The result is water with 99.9% of all contaminants, sediments, and particles removed, making crisper, cleaner, and safer drinking water.
