No district prohibition on a brine drain turned up in the current file.

Catalytic carbon with a chloramine claim (NSF/ANSI 42 for chloramine). Regular chlorine carbon is the wrong box.

Other options that still fit
Confirm hardness on the current CCR before buying
Open the current CCR for grains. This file does not invent a number from a ranking site. A salt softener needs a drain if it is legal at the address.

Under-sink reverse osmosis
The under-sink RO we actually run is Cloud RO — NSF/ANSI 58, kitchen tap, not a whole-house tank. Check the exact listing if PFAS is why you are shopping. Shop Amazon first for under-sink RO, or buy Cloud direct. Waterdrop is a tankless option if you want that path. A certifier-listed pitcher is the cheap first step. Nobody is paying for a medical claim.

Test the tap first
A homeowner kit is a start. It is not a state-certified lab. Use a certified lab when the decision is expensive.
On the report
- Water utility
- Irving Water Utilities
- Hardness
- Not printed on the official 2025 CCR tables we opened. The report says secondary constituents such as calcium, sodium, or iron are not required in this document. Unknown — no hardness bar invented from Dallas numbers. — City of Irving 2025 Water Quality Report (hardness not printed)
- Disinfectant
- Chloramine residual 2.84 ppm average (range 0.54–3.98), MRDL 4 / MRDLG 4 as annual average. Chloramine, not free chlorine. Water is processed by the City of Dallas and delivered to Irving. — City of Irving 2025 Water Quality Report
- Brine / salt to the sewer
- No district prohibition found in current research. Searched Irving Water Utilities and City of Irving sewer pages for a residential self-regenerating softener or brine-drain ban like LACSD Measure S. None turned up. Ask the sewer agency on the bill before you cut a brine drain.

Extra context besides the utility report and the chart above — geology, an unregulated table, or a published study. Not a second set of printed tap numbers.
- MicroplasticsWHO’s 2019 review examined studies that found microplastic particles in treated tap and bottled water in many places. That is a published-occurrence finding, not a number from this city’s water-quality report, and we do not invent a particles-per-liter count for the tap.Microplastics in drinking-water — World Health Organization
- NitrateSame 2025 distribution table. Nitrate (as N) 1.27–1.75 ppm, MCL 10.1.27–1.75 ppm nitrate as N, 2025.2025 Water Quality Report — City of Irving Water Utilities
Irving drinking water is Irving Water Utilities. Most supply is treated by the City of Dallas at Elm Fork and delivered ready to distribute. No City of Irving residential softener ban like LACSD Measure S turned up. Ask the sewer agency on the bill before you cut a brine drain. This is not a legal opinion.
The 2025 CCR does not print a hardness row. We do not copy a Dallas hardness number onto Irving. Chloramine residual 2.84 ppm (0.54–3.98). TTHMs 18 ppb (16–24). HAA5 20 ppb (13–27). Lead 90th percentile 1 ppb (2024). Kitchen shopping stays the Cloud RO / Waterdrop path already used on other cities if a listing is why you are looking.
