Frequently asked questions
What are PFAS?
PFAS, or “forever chemicals,” are long-lasting substances that do not naturally break down. They are found in products such as polishes, waxes, fabrics, food packaging, cleaning products, fire retardants, and non-stick surfaces. PFAS are linked to health issues including cancer, obesity, low fertility, liver damage, and high cholesterol.
How do PFAS enter our water supply?
PFAS can enter our water supply through industrial and consumer products. When these products are manufactured, used, or disposed of, PFAS can leach into the soil and water. Many wastewater treatment plants are not equipped to remove PFAS, allowing them to pass through and contaminate local water sources.
How can I reduce PFAS in my water supply?
To reduce PFAS in your water supply, consider using specialized filtration systems and treatment solutions. Culligan offers expert testing and certified solutions to help you take control of your home’s water quality—like the Aquasential® Smart Reverse Osmosis System and the Aquasential® Whole Home PFAS Water Filter, both of which are third-party certified to ANSI/NSF standards to reduce Total PFAS by more than 99%.
What is PFAS water testing?
PFAS water testing involves analyzing water samples to detect the presence of PFAS compounds. This process helps identify if PFAS levels exceed safe limits, ensuring water safety and compliance with EPA regulations.
How do I test my water for PFAS?
Testing your water for PFAS is easy and can be done with an at-home test kit from Culligan, which just requires a sample of your water. You can test your home’s water whenever it’s most convenient for you with our PFAS test kit, then send it to our lab for analysis and results.
Why should I use a PFAS test kit?
Using a PFAS testing kit allows you to detect PFAS in your water supply at home. It provides peace of mind by identifying harmful chemicals that may affect your health and helps you take proactive steps to reduce exposure.
How do I use the PFAS water test kit?
Our PFAS water test kit is easy to use and involves four simple steps. Collect a water sample, send it in for analysis, and receive a detailed report within 10 days. The report will list each detected PFAS compound and the total PFAS levels, helping you understand your water quality. Once your test is complete, your local Culligan team will follow up with any water treatment recommendations and next steps.
What does the PFAS water test kit detect?
Our test kit identifies 55 PFAS compounds and can detect levels as low as 1 part per trillion (ppt). This comprehensive detection ensures you get accurate information about the PFAS in your water.
How do I interpret the PFAS water test results?
The test results will include a detailed report listing each detected PFAS compound and their levels. It will also provide information on PFAS maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) set at state and federal levels, helping you understand the safety and quality of your water.
Why is PFAS water testing important now?
Recent legislation from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) set limits for 6 types of PFAS in municipal drinking water. However, public utilities have five years to comply so the best way to ensure your water quality is to test your water and if needed, put the appropriate treatment solution in place
