Your local water, explained
Denton municipal water and NTMWD supplies are different.
This hub separates City of Denton results from Frisco and Plano reports for customers served by those utilities. Do not borrow a neighboring city's hardness number when your own utility has not supplied one.
Your water → your home → your system
Your water
The report follows your water provider—not your ZIP code or county boundary.
Only the listed water system is summarized here. Choose “Other / not sure” if your bill shows a different supplier.

MCL is a maximum contaminant level. MRDL is a disinfectant limit. Lead/copper action levels use system sampling percentiles and are not a safe-tap threshold. TTHM/HAA5 compliance uses locational annual averages.

More about your local water
Denton treats water from Lake Lewisville and Lake Ray Roberts. Frisco and Plano reports include NTMWD supplier data. Some service areas cross county lines, so confirm the utility rather than using a mailing address as proof of service.
A useful local question
No. They are different water systems. The reviewed Denton report does not quantify hardness, while Frisco provides NTMWD plant ranges. Unknown hardness is not zero; a test of your incoming water resolves it.
We keep each utility’s results separate, show the reported sample year, and distinguish averages, maxima and tap-sampling percentiles. Hardness classifications use USGS ranges. Missing data stays unknown.
