What PFAS are
PFAS are a group of man-made chemicals used to make products resistant to heat, stains, grease and water, such as non-stick cookware. Firefighting foams have contained them too.
You can't see, taste or smell them, and only an accredited lab test can tell you what's in your water.
What we can do
Talk through your concern, point you to accredited testing, and explain which systems are designed for it.
Reverse osmosis (Crystal) and quality carbon block filtration are the technologies most often discussed for PFAS.
