jhunholz Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 So we received a notification from our village today that a higher than recommended level of PFAS were detected in two of the five wells that they draw from. It is below the EPAs level where remediation would be necessary. My question is, do I need to be concerned using this water in my tanks? I’d love to avoid setting up a RODI system, but if we need to we can do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleveland M Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 (edited) Looking at the EPA website it appears that even the EPA does not know yet what levels are harmful to people or the environment. Studies are ongoing. Edited September 17, 2022 by Cleveland M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhunholz Posted September 18, 2022 Author Share Posted September 18, 2022 Yeah, I did some initial searching and wasn't finding much. A few saltwater forums were suggesting it wouldn't be an issue if you use RODI, but that's also because most saltwater aquarists go that route anyway. I also know this problem isn't unique to my area and our levels aren't that high. I was mainly curious if anyone had any additional information.
