Lookout Subdivision - High Pressure Reports
February 06, 2026
Manville has received calls from customers in Lookout Subdivision who have reported high water pressure.
High water pressure can result from various factors related to the water system, such as upgraded pumps, maintenance work, or equipment failures. While Manville installs devices that helps control pressure at its mains, the homeowner is responsible for protecting household plumbing from pressure spikes by installing and maintaining a pressure-reducing valve (PRV).If your home already has a PRV but the pressure is still high, the valve has likely failed and may need to be replaced.
Manville is actively working on resolving equipment issues within the system as quickly as possible. Thank you
Reminder- Water Treatment Conversion -Pflugerville/Hutto area
February 02, 2026
All customers affected were notified directly of the pending water treatment conversion.
The conversion begins today, Monday, February 2, 2026, at 9:00 AM and is expected to be completed by Wednesday, March 4, 2026.
What to Expect During this conversion:
• A slight change in taste or odor.
• A temporary chlorine smell, similar to that found in swimming pools.
These effects are normal during a free-chlorine conversion and do not indicate a health risk. The water will continue to meet all applicable drinking water safety standards.
Special Notice for Sensitive Users: Customers who use dialysis machines, fish tanks, or other sensitive equipment should take appropriate precautions. Please consult your service provider, equipment manufacturer, or veterinarian,as free chlorine may require additional treatment or removal.
REASON FOR CHANGE
Manville WSC has chosen to implement a permanent disinfectant conversion to free chlorine based on the following:
• Improve disinfectant residual throughout the distribution system
• Reduce the potential for organic material accumulation in water mains
• Enhance the effectiveness of routine flushing activities
• Support long-term operation and maintenance of the water system
• Maintain compliance with state and federal drinking water regulations
