If a test in Kennebunkport has found PFAS, or you simply want to know, the next step is a treatment system matched to the compounds and levels in your water. We design it around your lab report and install it at the point of entry or at the kitchen tap.
PFAS Water Filtration for Kennebunkport homes
Many properties outside the central areas rely on private wells, often drilled into the bedrock under a thin layer of soil. Salt is a real consideration here, and wells close to tidal water can show changes in sodium and chloride after a dry spell.
Kennebunk and Arundel lie next door, and Wells and Biddeford are a short drive away, which keeps coastal York County within one route. Older cottages often have small pressure tanks and aging pumps that struggle when a summer house fills with guests.
What we see in York County wells
PFAS can travel through sandy coastal soils into shallow groundwater, and they have also been found in rock wells. Around the Kennebunkport coast and its back roads, we encourage a test on both older shallow wells and deeper drilled ones in Kennebunkport rather than guessing from the neighborhood.
What to test first in Kennebunkport
- A repeat sample if the first result is borderline
- pH and hardness, which affect how media behaves
- Chlorine or other disinfectant byproducts if the well has been shocked
How it works
How we handle PFAS water filtration, step by step
- 1
Collect a PFAS sample
We collect from an untreated tap, keep the bottles clean and ship to a laboratory that can report PFAS at low levels. The result tells us which compounds and how much.
- 2
Pick the media
If only drinking water needs treatment, we also discuss a point-of-use reverse osmosis system. We compare it with a whole-house bed in plain terms so you can decide.
- 3
Install and sample
The system goes on the main line after the pressure tank, with sample taps before and after the media. Backwash and bypass arrangements are set up according to the design.
- 4
Retest and replace media
Retesting is the heart of PFAS treatment. We schedule a check after startup and regular samples after that, because performance is only known when it is measured.
What shapes the job in Kennebunkport
Granular activated carbon and ion exchange resin are the two most common approaches for whole-house PFAS treatment. Each has strengths, and the best fit for your Kennebunkport well depends on which PFAS are present and at what level.
When to think about PFAS
- A home near a former industrial site or fire training area
- A household with young children or a pregnancy
- A test showing PFAS above a state guideline
- Media that is past its replacement date
If a PFAS result has you looking for options in Kennebunkport, call or send a request. We will read the report with you and explain what makes sense. We also work in Wells and Saco.
