How to treat PFOA, PFOS, and PFC in Your Drinking Water

The good news is that Culligan of Tampa can remove those harmful THMs and VOCs from your water supply.

Does your water…

  • Taste “off” or “funny”?
  • Look cloudy or otherwise not crystal-clear?
  • Have an unpleasant odor?

 

Or, have your water bills increased unexpectedly – for no obvious reason?

If so, these are signs that you might have an issue going on in your water that you need to get tested.

PFOA (Perfluorooctanoic acid or perfluorooctanoate) and PFOS (perfluorooctane sulfonate) are chemicals that have been used in the United States since the 1940s in the manufacturing of popular consumer goods including Teflon, pesticides, household cleaning products, and other other items.

According to the US EPA:

[PFOA and PFOS] are “extremely persistent in the environment and resistant to typical environmental degradation processes. They are widely distributed across the higher trophic levels and are found in soil, air and groundwater at sites across the United States. The toxicity, mobility and bioaccumulation potential of PFOS and PFOA pose potential adverse effects for the environment and human health.

The EPA has released a Drinking Water Advisory for PFOS which reveals potentially serious issues linking PFOS and PFOA to conditions like cancer, neuroendocrine conditions, cardiovascular problems, reproductive issues, and more.

If you suspect you have PFOA or PFC in your drinking water it’s important that you get your water tested. We can help you navigate that process with the proper state agencies.

If you’ve already determined your water has been contaminated with PFOA, then fill-out the form below so we can review your water test results and explain our customized, laboratory-verified solution for improving your drinking water.

Jaliee did an excellent job on my sink filter. Very pleasant employee. Thank you.
Mr. Henry has done the excellent job!

Henry is an excellent in communicating with his customers and advises to calls him if there are any issues with the system before his next visit. Henry is the best technician and hope he stays with Culligan for a long time to continue providing this kind of great service Thank you Henry/Thank you Culligan
We had an different brand water softner that needed replaced. Called Culligan the entire experience was no hassle and seemless. During the appointment Doug spelled out exactly what we needed. There was no hassle, no fuss. The new system was put in, took about 30 minutes to replace the old one. We now have soft water and they come out to check the system once every 3 months and replenish the salt, too easy. Highly recommend Doug, was a pleasure working with him and the entire Culligan of Tamp staff.
Lacy was extremely friendly and helpful, very polite as well

Great Communication with appointments and making sure someone is here when we need them
We needed a new water softener after the unit in the home we just closed on malfunctioned and leaked all the resin out of the tank while we were out of town(major mess!). We wanted something that was stress free and proven so we didn’t have to worry about our water softener. Jeff, our sales rep, was great and really explained the process and still is available when I’ve texted him. After the unit was installed, we had some issues with the water softening and the service provided by Jessica and Lacy was outstanding. Texting and calls were very friendly and prompt. They scheduled our service tech Bakari to come out and he was excellent and patiently explained everything to make sure all was working right. Great communication and backs up our reasoning to go with a company that stands behind their product. They are following up again this week with another checkup to make sure all is good with our system. Thank you!
Great service!
Great pleasant scheduler.
