We see our water bills skyrocket in the summer. We know it’s because our plants and grass need water, but are we even watering the right amount?
We are also told to water in the late evening, but most of us are asleep so we may not be aware of what our sprinkler system is doing.
Well guess what? With some tune ups and good direction you can grow healthier plants all while saving money on your water bill and doing your part to prevent subsidence. It’s a win win.
Dear Residents,
The WFUD Well that has been put offline is being cleaned and flushed.
After this process, samples will be taken from the well and the aquafer to determine the cause of the discolored water produced by this well. Water production lines have been redirected from this well while they continue working on the resolution.
WFUD/261 are currently using our interconnect to the City of Houston water. Accordingly, our disinfectant system has been changed back to chloramines vs chorine. We will continue with this disinfectant while we work on getting the Well back on line.
Chloramines, like Chlorine are used to disinfect drinking water, killing bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms that may cause illness. While Chloramines are safe, some individuals, like those undergoing dialysis, will need to be certain the disinfectant is completely removed from the water that is used for the dialysate.
Additionally, Chloramines, like chlorine are toxic to aquatic life and need to be filtered out before using in a fish tank.
We ask for your cooperation in conserving water until this issue is fully resolved. We will update you as we work to resolve this issue.
