Water filtration in Manor
Manor's water is a patchwork. The City of Manor runs its own wells and also buys water from Manville WSC, 130 Regional WSC, and Austin. Manville also serves some Manor homes directly.
That means two neighbors can have noticeably different water. Testing at your tap matters more here than almost anywhere.

Mixed sources, mixed disinfectants
The city's own wells draw from Colorado River alluvium and use free chlorine, averaging 1.41 ppm. Manville WSC uses chloramine, averaging 1.38 ppm. Depending on your mix, you may have one, the other, or a blend.
Catalytic carbon handles both chlorine and chloramine, so it's a safe choice when you're not sure which you're getting.
Hardness
The city's wells measured 297 ppm in a 2021 sample, which is very hard. Manville's 2025 report shows a wide range from about 40 to 346 ppm depending on the source.
Manville's 2025 report also shows natural fluoride reaching 2.07 ppm at the high end, which triggered a public notice.
