The Colony is a lakeside community on the southern shore of Lake Lewisville, and while that setting is idyllic, the city's tap water still registers 13–16 grains per gallon of hardness from UTRWD supply lines running directly from that lake. Waterfront and near-lake properties in The Colony often see accelerated mineral deposits on outdoor fixtures and irrigation heads due to higher evaporation rates near the water. Water softener installation in The Colony is a smart investment whether you are protecting indoor appliances or outdoor irrigation and water features.
The Colony is served by the Upper Trinity Regional Water District, drawing treated surface water primarily from Lake Lewisville, which forms the city's northern boundary. Hardness in The Colony typically measures between 220 and 275 mg/L (13–16 GPG). UTRWD uses chloramine disinfection in its distribution network. The Colony's location on Lake Lewisville makes it a popular destination, but its proximity to the reservoir does not change the mineral content of the treated water delivered to residents.
