The short answer

1 result is above the health goal. The worst: Lead, above the health goal. No health-based violations on file since 2016.

What handles it

What was found

Lead and copper: EPA SDWIS monitoring periods ending 2011 to 2026.

Arsenic: Virginia’s yearly averages per water system, as CDC’s Environmental Public Health Tracking Network publishes them, 2023.

Fluoride, total trihalomethanes (TTHM), haloacetic acids (HAA5), chromium (total) and nitrate: EPA’s compliance monitoring file, samples taken from April 30, 2012 to Jan. 25, 2019. Newer results are in the utility’s annual water quality report.

Above the health goal1

Lead

Comes from pipes, often your own

Above the health goal

1.5ppb

90th percentile, 2024 to 2026

In the latest period, 9 in 10 homes sampled were at or below 1.5 ppb, below EPA’s action level of 15 ppb. The action level drops to 10 ppb on Nov. 1, 2027. EPA’s health goal for lead is zero.

2017 average: 0.39 ppm

Averaged by year, the highest was 0.51 ppm, in 2014, below EPA’s legal limit of 4.0 ppm. Its highest single sample was 0.52 ppm. In 2017, the latest year on file, its two samples averaged 0.39 ppm.

What handles it

Below EPA’s limits

5.8ppb

Highest yearly average, 2014 to 2017

Averaged by year, the highest was 5.8 ppb, in 2017, below EPA’s legal limit of 80 ppb. That was also the latest year on file.

Highest yearly average, 2014 to 2017

2017: not found

Averaged by year, the highest was 4.2 ppb, in 2014, below EPA’s legal limit of 60 ppb. In 2017, the latest year on file, it wasn’t found in its one sample.

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.”

At the tap, or for the whole house?

Lead and copper usually come from pipes and fixtures inside or near your home. A whole-house system sits where water enters, so it cannot catch what your own plumbing adds after it. For those, the filter that counts is the one at the tap. How whole-house systems compare.

What this report can’t tell you

  • Everything else. Arsenic results here are Virginia’s yearly averages as CDC publishes them, from 2023 on, with EPA’s national file for 2012 to 2019. Fluoride, total trihalomethanes (TTHM), haloacetic acids (HAA5), chromium (total) and nitrate come from EPA’s file alone, which ends in 2019. Brookwood Manor’s own annual report, which it must send you every year, has newer results for those and 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; CDC’s yearly averages for Virginia cover 2023; EPA’s compliance samples are from April 30, 2012 to Jan. 25, 2019.

Testing your own tap

Brookwood Manor’s results are for the water it sends out. What your own service line, solder and fixtures add shows up only in a test of your tap, by a lab Virginia certifies.
