PFAS & PFOS Remediation Services
Targeted Solutions For PFAS-Free Water
At Tri-County Pumps, we provide expert PFAS and PFOS remediation solutions designed for homes, facilities, and properties concerned about water quality and long-term environmental risk.
Our team delivers practical treatment strategies based on chemistry, flow conditions, and the distinct needs of each site we service.
Why PFAS & PFOS Are Considered Hazardous
PFAS and PFOS are man-made chemicals known for lingering in the environment and presenting serious long-term health risks. Commonly used in industrial and consumer products, they have been detected in drinking water supplies across the United States.
These compounds are highly resistant to traditional filtration and treatment methods, making them incredibly difficult to eliminate once present. Their persistence and potential health impacts have surpassed older concerns like arsenic or nitrates, leading to increased public awareness, heightened concern among homeowners, and stricter regulatory standards at both state and federal levels.
Benefits Of Our PFAS & PFOS Remediation Services
Our approach goes beyond treatment and supports long-term water quality along with responsible site management.
Benefits For The Local Community
Removing PFAS from water reduces exposure risks linked to cancer, immune dysfunction, and developmental issues. Protecting household and municipal water supplies improves health outcomes and reduces community concerns about invisible contaminants that may persist for years if not addressed properly.
Compliance With Regulations
A series of new rules surrounding PFAS levels are emerging across state and federal agencies. Understanding this, our systems are designed to meet or exceed current regulatory requirements, helping clients avoid fines, delays, or system shutdowns related to water quality noncompliance or discharge violations.
Long-Term Environmental Protection
Addressing PFAS detection early helps cut down on the chance of future contamination spreading into surrounding groundwater or surface water. Containing and treating this group of chemicals also helps protect local wildlife, plant life, soil quality, and the broader watershed from long-term damage.
Custom Solutions Based On Severity & Site Conditions
No two contamination sites are the same, which is exactly why we carefully customize systems around flow rate, well construction, usage patterns, and land use. Each solution balances effectiveness, affordability, and adaptability to future changes in water chemistry, discharge rules, or remediation funding.
Tri-County Pumps Featured PFAS & PFOS Remediation Service Offerings
We offer an array of in-depth services, spanning from assessment through treatment and long-term risk reduction.
Site Assessment & Testing
Our specialists collect water samples, evaluate flow and pressure conditions, and assess site-specific discharge requirements. Our testing process includes screening for PFAS compounds alongside standard water quality parameters such as bacteria, nitrate, and metals. The data we gather informs every step of the solution and helps meet regulatory reporting standards.
Remediation Strategies
Treatment typically involves a mix of activated carbon, ion exchange resins, and reverse osmosis systems. In some cases, we may integrate experimental approaches like gas flotation. Each method is selected based on the water’s chemistry and the expected contaminant profile. Emergency systems are available for rapid deployment with later fine-tuning.
Containment Solutions
PFAS can’t be neutralized by standard filtration, and once separated, the waste stream must be effectively managed. Our containment plans may involve RO reject handling, secure landfill disposal, or high-temperature incineration. Every approach we take is carefully selected with cost, site constraints, and long-term disposal regulations in mind.
Risk Assessment & Management
We assess the long-term risks to groundwater, surrounding ecosystems, and nearby water supplies, which includes evaluating future property use, regulatory thresholds, and disposal logistics. Our team works with property owners and authorities to create remediation plans that meet environmental standards and reduce future liability.
