What this means for you in ZIP 75076

Is it safe to drink right now?
Based on the latest EPA data, Tanglewood on Texoma has no unresolved health-based violations from the past year. Water that meets federal standards is generally considered safe to drink for most healthy people.
Should I use a filter?
Yes, we recommend considering one. Other regulated PFAS (PFHxS) also exceeded 2024 limits.
What kind of filter?
For PFAS, look for NSF/ANSI 53 (with an explicit PFOA/PFOS or total PFAS claim) or NSF/ANSI 58 reverse osmosis. See matched standards and product picks.

This is general information from public EPA data, not medical advice. Lead often comes from a home’s own pipes, so only a test of your tap can tell your exposure. If you are pregnant, caring for an infant, or have a weakened immune system, ask your doctor or health department.
