The ZIP code it serves
The short answer
1 result is above EPA’s legal limit, and 1 more is above the health goal. The worst: Fluoride, above the legal limit. 104 health-based violations since 2016.
What handles itWhat was found
Fluoride, arsenic, nitrate, haloacetic acids (HAA5), total trihalomethanes (TTHM) and chromium (total): Texas’s own results, samples taken from March 5, 2020 to Sept. 14, 2026, with EPA’s 2012 to 2019 file for earlier years.
Above the legal limit1
Fluoride
Forms or is added in treatment
5.5ppm
Highest yearly average, 2020 to 2026
2026 average: 5.3 ppm
Averaged by year, the highest was 5.5 ppm, in 2022, above EPA’s legal limit of 4.0 ppm. Its highest single sample was 6.0 ppm. In 2026, the latest year on file, its nine samples averaged 5.3 ppm, above the limit. EPA recorded violations for fluoride at this utility in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest yearly average of 5.9 ppm, in 2013, and EPA recorded violations in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019.

Above the health goal1
Arsenic
Comes from the source
7.6ppb
Highest yearly average, 2021 to 2024
Averaged by year, the highest was 7.6 ppb, in 2024: below EPA’s legal limit of 10 ppb, but above its health goal of zero. Its highest single sample was 7.9 ppb. That was also the latest year on file.
What handles it

Total trihalomethanes (TTHM)
Forms or is added in treatment
11.3ppb
Highest yearly average, 2020 to 2025
Averaged by year, the highest was 11.3 ppb, in 2025, below EPA’s legal limit of 80 ppb. That was also the latest year on file. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest yearly average of 9.8 ppb, in 2014.

2 compounds tested and not foundBelow the reporting level in every sample. Not found is not the same as zero.
- Chromium (total)
- Lead
What handles it
A certification covers specific claims, not a whole standard. Look for these claims on the certifier’s listing, not the box. Wording varies a little: NSF writes “Lead Reduction,” WQA just “Lead.”
- NSF/ANSI 53
Claims: Fluoride, Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=50 ppb Reduction
For: Fluoride, Arsenic
Other certifiers’ wording: Arsenic (III) (50 ppb influent level)
- NSF/ANSI 58
Claims: Fluoride Reduction, Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=50 ppb Reduction
For: Fluoride, Arsenic
Other certifiers’ wording: Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=300 ppb Reduction; Arsenic (V) (300 ppb influent level)
At the tap, or for the whole house?
These come with the water itself, so a whole-house system certified for the same claims treats every tap and shower. A filter at the tap treats drinking water for much less. How whole-house systems compare.

What this report can’t tell you
Everything else. Fluoride, arsenic, nitrate, haloacetic acids (HAA5), total trihalomethanes (TTHM) and chromium (total) results here are Texas’s own from 2020 on, with EPA’s national file for 2012 to 2019. Seven Estates’s own annual report, which it must send you every year, has the contaminants this page does not show.
Your own plumbing. Lead results are the 90th percentile across homes the utility samples. Your home’s service line, solder and fixtures decide yours. A certified lab test is the only way to know.
What it means for your health. This page reports what the records show and EPA’s limits and goals; it is not medical advice. If you are worried about a health effect, talk to a doctor or your local health department.
Anything after the latest data. SDWIS data is from 2026 Q3; UCMR 5 didn’t sample this utility; Texas’s results run from March 5, 2020 to Sept. 14, 2026.
