PFAS Removal From Your Family’s Water With One Efficient System

Water all over the country has frequently been positive for lead, cysts, and PFOA/PFOS, and our area is not exempt. These chemicals have been found to exceed the levels set forth by health advisory organizations and may cause health problems.

 Eighteen million Americans live in communities where the water systems are in violation of the law. As a mater of fact, the federal agency in charge of making sure those systems are safe not only know these issues exist, they’ve done little to stop them, according to information provided by CNN, which cites multiple sources and water experts.

Our goal is not to scare anyone into getting water treatment, however, educating our local community about water quality is a top priority. We’ve worked with many local families to improve their water and to provide peace-of-mind, knowing the water they drink and bathe in is free of harmful contaminants.

Contact us today to learn more about our professionally installed and serviced drinking water system that reduces PFOS contamination. Fill out the contact form or call (352) 292-1819!

What are PFAS, PFOA, PFOS and What’s The Difference Between Them?

In a nutshell, PFAS stands for per- and polyflouralkyl substances, which are synthetic chemicals used to make everyday products we all use (your cell phone, your non-stick pans, some food packaging, most things that used to be made at 3M are made of PFAS). PFOA (perfluorooctanoic acid, also referred to as C8) and PFOS (perfluorooctane sulfonate) are simply two types of PFAS, and the difference between the two is the amount of carbon atoms in the chain of polyflouralkyl. GenX is also considered a PFAS contaminant.

These chemicals have been around for almost 80 years, when they started being manufactured in the 1940’s. Unfortunately, a lot of chemical waste ends up being dumped in the water supply we drink from. Imagine 80 years of chemical waste contaminating the water we use every day.

The Water Quality Association (WQA.org) tells us exposure to PFAS can happen when we eat food grown in soil contaminated by PFAS or drink water that has been contaminated and not properly filtered out. It can also be released through the household products we use to clean our homes.

Some potential health risks of PFAS exposure are cancer, a weakened immune system, fertility issues, low birth weight for infants, abnormal levels for cholesterol and thyroid hormones, and inflammation of the liver. Other health related issues are still under research.

How Can I Know I Have Safe Drinking Water?

Ecowater Systems is awesome. Michael is a stand up guy and Jason did a very neat installation. The improvement in the water quality is great.
I called Eco Water to get a quote on water treatment. They sent John out to test my water. It turns out that John was also the gentleman who had previously dropped a $100 flyer on my doorstep. He was so impressive with his knowledge of the systems and benefits and after calling around his pricing was super competitive. If your in the market for water softener or filtration John and EcoWater are the guys to call.-Paul D
Jay was the technician that did my annual maintenance on my ECO Water system. He did an amazing job! I give him A+++ all the way! Thank you!

I had a 16 year old Eco water softener that was still working well but the screen was totally black and I couldn't see it to reset after adding salt. My contact in the office was Mindy who was very helpful. She told me how much a circuit board would cost and also told me about a comparable unit to the one I had (plus info on others). I chose to get a new unit comparable to the unit I had. My thinking was that I'd spend quite a bit of money on a new circuit board and then the unit would stop working soon after (Murphy's Law). Lance came out to install the new unit and take away the old unit. He was very good at explaining what he was going to do and before I knew it, the new unit was up and running. Along the way, Lance showed me a couple of things that were starting to go on the old unit which helped to re-enforce my initial thinking about getting a new unit. I was very pleased in dealing with Eco Systems as I always had been over the years. Thank you.

We have used Ecowater to maintain our water filtration system for several years and have always been very happy with their work. I'm writing this review because sometimes the true measure of a company and its people is how they respond when something goes wrong. Recently, they came out and installed a new part that sprung a leak overnight and did a lot of damage to the ceiling, walls and floors. Michael and his guys came out to our home near Orlando to assess the damage. They cleaned up the mess and then made us whole, paying for all the work that was needed, which included bringing in equipment to dry the area out to prevent mold, a drywall company to repair the ceiling and wall, and a flooring company to replace the flooring. This is an outstanding company and they have our loyalty for life! I wish I could give them more stars! Thanks, Ecowater!

EcoWater Rep. Danny came to our home and perform a water test, demonstrating how hard unsafe our water was. Danny took his time to explain all the options we had and all the different packages that were available to us. After we signed contract, about a week after we got an appointment for installation. Jason came and installed the water softener and reverse osmosis water system. He was also professional and knowledgeable as well as made great suggestions on how to position the unit outside for maximum space. His expertise made the installation process seamless. We are happy with our decision with go with EcoWater. Thank you.

My 17 year old water softener was, I thought, on its last leg and about ready to die. Jason, who has been servicing my softener for several years, responded. After performing a detailed check of the softener he discovered a faulty circuit board was the problem. He installed a new one and now the softener runs like a charm, hopefully for another 17 years. Also, Jason always impresses me with his knowledge and professionalism.

Ecowater, was really great to work with very professional and accommodating I had to reschedule the intallation 3 times with no problems. The technician arrived exactly on schedule and had the system installed in less that 1 hour. I was very pleased with the service and friendly demeanor of all staff I interacted with. If you need a water system I'd go with ECOWATER!

Had Ecosystem move my water softener system from my old house to my new house. Jay was the technician that came out and moved the softener for us. He was very professional, helpful and explained the entire process clearly and effectively. I highly recommend Jay and he is one of the best, if not the best, technician I have ever experienced. He was not in a hurry to just finish the job and made sure everything was done correctly! Thank you Jay!

I want to congratulate Jason Yandle, who came out to do a yearly inspection on our water softener. He immediately recognized that it had been a while since we had it inspected. He showed us the water contents and explained everything to us. We Went ahead and had it replaced. Jason was professional, knowledgeable and explained everything to us.

I did lot of research on the water softeners and comparing between eco, pelican & Kinetico. Finally picked Eco with Costco program. The water quality is awesome and service is on time.
ECO Water Systems did a great job with the installation of our new water softener. They were quick and installed an excellent piece of equipment. I recommend them to everyone needing a water softener.

My husband and I moved to Ocala Fl a month ago, I noticed my laundry was coming out orange. I emailed Eco Water and their response was so quick, I received a call from Michael the owner himself!! He worked around my work schedule and came to my house himself.. He explained everything to me extremely well so I could understand within a couple days Jason installed my water softener while I was at work, he placed it in the perfect location.. Michael drove back out to my house after I got out of work to check everything out himself, checked my water and talked me through how to work the unit.. I was extremely impressed with the quality unit I received and the customer service is over the top!!! I would definitely recommend Eco Water to EVERYONE!! Thank you again Michael great job! One happy customer 5 stars all the way!!

I started looking at home water filtration systems several weeks after moving to Florida. After some investigation, I discovered that the itching and burning that I was experiencing all over my body was coming from the high level of chlorine that is in the water. I have to give this company five stars! From start to finish, everyone at EcoWater was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. John T. and Jason (installer) are given high marks for their explanation and installation of the water system we chose for our home. The price was more than fair and they didn't try to sell us a yearly maintenance contract that is not needed for this system. I would highly recommend going with this company if you are looking at getting rid of the chlorine and hard water in your home.

These guys are awesome. Andy Koehler to be more specific. Super knowledgeable and passionate. I've used them twice now. Our machine works as advertised and their customer service is 2nd to none. Always super responsive and helpful. Thanks again guys for everything!
I was extremely impressed first with Andy Koehler, salesperson and then Jason Yandle, installer. Andy explained in detail the water softener system that would work for our house. Jason did the installation and he was very personable and we loved his sense of humor as he installed the water softener and then gave my husband and I all the information we needed on how the system works. I would definitely recommend EcoWater of North Florida. Great customer service! And I’m happy that this water softener will keep my hair, skin, soft and my clothes will smell clean and my appliances will last longer. Thank you EcoWater of North Florida!

Jason came to install a water softener system in our garage. He was prompt, courteous, and knowledgeable. He also installed a drinking water system under my kitchen sink. I was given full instructions, and a mini lesson on both systems. I would highly recommend using this company, and I would also say that Jason was very competent in his job, as well as friendly and personable.

Frequently Asked PFAS Questions:

What is PFAS?

PFAS (polyfluoroalkyl substances) are synthetic organofluorine chemical compounds that have multiple fluorine atoms attached to an alkyl chain. They are a group of man-made chemicals that don’t break down and can accumulate over time. There is evidence that exposure to PFAS can lead to adverse human health effects.

What are PFAS chemicals?

Most notably, PFAS chemicals include PFOA, PFOS, & GenX. According to OECD, there are at least 4730 different PFASs.

What are PFAS used for?

PFAS are used for creating stain and water repellent fabrics, nonstick products (e.g., Teflon), polishes, waxes, paints, cleaning products, and fire-fighting foams.

How to filter PFAS out of water?

In general, PFAS resist most conventional chemical treatment technologies employed by local water municipalities. The strongest proven technologies to filter PFAS out of water include granular activated carbon absorption, ion exchange resins, and reverse osmosis.

What does PFAS do to your body?

Exposure to PFAS may result in negative health effects to your body. Some identified by the EPA include:
Developmental effects to fetuses during pregnancy or to breastfed infants
Developmental effects to children
Testicular or kidney cancer
Liver damage
Immune effects (antibody production and immunity)
Thyroid effects
Cholesterol changes

How to test for PFAS?

To test for PFAS, contact your state for a list of laboratories that are certified to test for PFAS using EPA Method 537. To search online for EPA Certified Labs for drinking water testing, go to the EPA’s website.
