What PFAS/PFOS Water Purification Does

PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) and PFOS are synthetic compounds once used in things like stain-resistant fabrics, nonstick cookware, and firefighting foam. The issue is that they don’t break down naturally — ever. Once they reach the water supply, they stay there.

Our PFAS water purification systems in Rancho Cucamonga use multiple filtration stages to capture and remove those chemicals before they enter your home’s plumbing. Between activated carbon filters, ion exchange media, and reverse osmosis membranes, we can strip away nearly all traces and give you the fresh, clean water you expect.

How the Process Works

Every home’s water is a little different, so we don’t use a one-size-fits-all setup. Here’s how most PFAS removal systems work:

  • Granular Activated Carbon (GAC): Traps chemical molecules inside the carbon pores.
  • Reverse Osmosis (RO): Forces water through an ultra-fine membrane that blocks contaminants.
  • Ion Exchange Resin: Swaps out harmful ions and helps polish the final water supply.

We’ll help you choose the system that fits your water chemistry and explain how to keep it working its best year-round.

PFAS/PFOS Removal FAQ’s

What are PFAS and PFOS, and why are they a concern?

PFAS and PFOS are man-made chemicals that resist heat, oil, and water. They were used for decades in everyday products and don’t break down naturally, which means they can build up in people and the environment over time.

How do I know if my water has PFAS or PFOS?

The only way to know for sure is through testing. Ground Werks can send samples for lab analysis and walk you through the results so you know exactly what’s in your water.

Do standard filters remove PFAS?

No, most basic filters won’t remove PFAs. PFAS removal requires systems with granular activated carbon, reverse osmosis, or ion exchange technology. We can help by assessing what you need, testing your water, and installing the right system for you.

Is reverse osmosis the best method?

Reverse osmosis is among the most effective methods to clean up your water. Reverse osmosis removes up to 99% of PFAS and PFOS when maintained properly, giving you bottled-water quality right at home.

How often do the filters need to be changed?

Filter replacement depends on how much water you use and the level of contamination. Most homeowners replace filters every 6 to 12 months to keep the system running as efficiently as possible.

Are PFAS really dangerous?

Ongoing studies suggest they can affect hormone levels, immune response, and overall health with long-term exposure. That’s why more homeowners are choosing to install purification systems that specifically target them.

Why PFAS/PFOS Is Worth It

PFAS and PFOS removal isn’t just about taste or clarity. It’s also about your health, safety, and long-term peace of mind. A dedicated purification system gives you:

  • Water that’s safer to drink and cook with
  • No more chemical taste or odor
  • Protection for your whole home, not just one sink
  • Confidence that what comes out of your tap is actually clean
  • It’s one of those upgrades you’ll feel better about every single day.
