In May 2025, residents near the Blue Mountains were shocked to learn PFAS in their reservoir measured 5× above Australia’s safe limit. This incident highlights why every homeowner, especially those on tank, bore or well water - needs a clear PFAS testing plan.

What Are PFAS and Why You Should Care 
- Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances “forever chemicals” resist breakdown, accumulate in soil and water, and link to health risks like hormone disruption and immune issues.  
- PFAS often originate from firefighting foams, industrial runoff or older teflon coatings, making contamination surprisingly common.  
- Regular water testing is the only way to know if your tap is safe.

Step-by-Step Testing Process  
1. Order Your Test: Choose a PFAS-only or combine it with a broader water quality panel
2. Collect Sample: Follow provided instructions: purge your tap, fill vial, seal & package.  
3. Send to Lab: Use the prepaid satchel for express delivery to selected accredited laboratory.  
4. Review Results: Receive a clear PDF report within 24hrs after test processing.  
5. Take Action: If PFAS exceed guidelines, install a certified filter (e.g., activated carbon) and retest after 3–6 months.

FAQs: PFAS Water Testing  
-How much does a PFAS test cost? Typically $399-$1,200 depending on sensitivity and number of compounds.  
- How often should I test my tank water? At least every 6 months as recommended by health regulators. 
- Can I filter out PFAS? Yes, look for filters certified to remove PFOS & PFOA to < 0.07 µg/L (70 ppt).
