Water Treatment Conversion -Pflugerville/Hutto area

All customers affected have been notified directly of the pending water treatment conversion. The conversion will begin on Monday, February 2, 2026, at 9:00 AM and is expected to be completed by Wednesday, March 4, 2026. As stated in the notice, this is a permanent change.

What to Expect During this conversion:
• A slight change in taste or odor.
• A temporary chlorine smell, similar to that found in swimming pools.
These effects are normal during a free-chlorine conversion and do not indicate a health risk. The water will continue to meet all applicable drinking water safety standards.

Special Notice for Sensitive Users: Customers who use dialysis machines, fish tanks, or other sensitive equipment should take appropriate precautions. Please consult your service provider, equipment manufacturer, or veterinarian,as free chlorine may require additional treatment or removal.

REASON FOR CHANGE

Manville WSC has chosen to implement a permanent disinfectant conversion to free chlorine based on the following:
• Improve disinfectant residual throughout the distribution system
• Reduce the potential for organic material accumulation in water mains
• Enhance the effectiveness of routine flushing activities
• Support long-term operation and maintenance of the water system
• Maintain compliance with state and federal drinking water regulations
