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.

I just scheduled my yearly reverse osmosis drinking system filter replacement and as usual Amy was phenomenal. She is very helpful! Installation was completed very professionally. The water softener is functioning as advertised and the water drinking filtering systems provides great tasting water.

My technician for Culligan is the BEST. Always professional, always treats a client with respect. Does their job with joy and awesomeness. Thank you kindly
I call at the Tampa office and Jessica took my call. Jessica was very nice and helpful. She answered my questions, gave me an estimated cost of the requested service and provided more than one option for setting up the service. Jessica is a very good example of what a customer service personal should be… not only did she provided a great service, she also made me feel that I was treated as a valuable customer.
Amy was great helping me this morning with my account
Jaliee was very helpful scheduling my appointment.
I just want to add that Jessica the customer service representative on the telephone always helps me out . Being dissabled I am always at the doctor and anytime I need to change a appointment she gets me a new one and every time I hang up by mistake she calls me right back. She makes it easy for us to call in our payments But most of all she is a caring and easy to talk to real person to help whenever I need help of any kind. Also the man who services our system always make sure we have plenty of salt and recalibrates our system whenever it needs it and he checks the system every time he comes . Our filter changes are made by very component service people and they are very cleaned and understanding of my needs as a disabled person. I would highly recommend Culligan to anyone. Even the installation was done by plumbers who went the extra steps redoing water lines from my meter that were a complete mess. Most of all the Water tastes and feels good on clothes washed. I HIGHLY !!! recommend the whole house service. Sincerely, JAMES POMMET, U.S.A.F. VETERAN P.S. THANKS AGAIN JESSICA

My husband and I recently moved into a new home with a Culligan water softener system, and we wanted to have someone come out to inspect it and show us how to properly maintain it since we’re new to owning one. I spoke with Jessica over the phone, and she was incredibly kind, friendly, and accommodating. She took the time to answer my questions and made the process of scheduling an appointment easy. Excellent customer service, and I really appreciate how welcoming and helpful she was!
