PFAS in Your Water: What You Need to Know—and How The Clean Water Company Can Help

What Are PFAS—and Why Are They Dangerous?
PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are man-made chemicals used in everything from nonstick pans to firefighting foam. They’re incredibly persistent, earning the nickname “forever chemicals” because they don’t break down in the environment or our bodies.

Even low-level, long-term exposure to PFAS has been linked to:

  • Hormonal disruptions

  • Immune system issues

  • Developmental delays in children

  • Higher risk of certain cancers

These chemicals are widespread in U.S. tap water, even in areas with “safe” levels under outdated federal guidelines.

How PFAS Enter Your Water Supply
PFAS contamination typically comes from industrial runoff, waste sites, or firefighting materials entering groundwater or surface water sources. Once there, they travel through municipal water systems and directly into your home.
