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.

What our customers say

There’s a reason Culligan of Tampa is the best water treatment company in Tampa Bay with over 3,415+ 4.7-Stars Google Reviews.

The Culligan technician I’d give him a 10+. He called me to let me know he was on his way to my house and when he was done, he informed me it was all taken care of and tomorrow I just have to change out a new bottle. He was very professional and polite.
Angelo did an outstanding job replacing the resin in my water softener. He was friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He didn't mind me asking questions while I watched the repair and took the time to explain what he was doing throughout the process. He also offered helpful advice about future filtration options without any sales pressure. It's rare to find someone who is both highly skilled and genuinely enjoys helping customers. Thank you, Angelo, for the exceptional service!
Jaliee and Gerard responded quickly to my service call on my system. Great service and professional, courteous customer service! Thank you both!
We’ve been Tampa Culligan bottle customers since 2012. After excellent delivery service, we took the plunge and replaced the cooler along with the 40 pound bottles. Thanks to Courtney and the Culligan RO set-up, we now have the best tasting water ever dispensed at the sink and the fridge. Where has this been all my life? 100% recommend.
Excellent
