Beneath the surface
Magnolia-Money Hills Estates (CSWR) · PWS ID LA1103164 · 2025 water quality report
The Complete Home package: whole-home catalytic carbon for the chloramine at every tap, plus reverse osmosis at the kitchen sink for drinking water, ice, and spot-free glasses at that tap. Iron filtration handles the staining before it reaches your fixtures. Money Hill tests soft, so no softener goes in.
Get my written plan and priceYour water arrives with chloramine in it, at 2.7 parts per million. That is the disinfectant Magnolia-Money Hills Estates (CSWR) uses, and it is what people taste in coffee, in ice, and in the first glass of the day. Chloramine does not gas off in a pitcher the way chlorine does, so catalytic carbon is the piece that takes it out, at every tap in the house.
The hardness here is 1.6 milligrams per liter, about 0.1 grains. That is soft water by any measure, so a softener would have almost nothing to work on and we leave it out of the plan.
The water here is groundwater, pumped from Money Hills Estates Well. The report also shows manganese above the aesthetic limit. That is the orange or dark staining that shows up in tubs, sinks, and laundry over time, and iron filtration is built for exactly that.
