The short answer

2 results are above EPA’s legal limit, and 2 more are above the health goal. The worst: Haloacetic acids (HAA5), above the legal limit. No health-based violations on file since 2016.

What handles it

What was found

Lead and copper: EPA SDWIS monitoring periods ending 2009 to 2024.

Nitrate: Florida’s own results, samples taken from Dec. 8, 2020 to Dec. 30, 2024, with EPA’s 2012 to 2019 file for earlier years.

Haloacetic acids (HAA5), total trihalomethanes (TTHM), arsenic, chromium (total), fluoride and uranium: EPA’s compliance monitoring file, samples taken from Feb. 8, 2012 to Dec. 11, 2018. Newer results are in the utility’s annual water quality report.

Above the legal limit

99.6ppb

Highest yearly average, 2012 to 2018

2018, one sample: 25.9 ppb

Averaged by year, the highest was 99.6 ppb, in 2012, above EPA’s legal limit of 60 ppb. Its highest single sample was 145 ppb. In 2018, the latest year on file, its one sample was 25.9 ppb. EPA recorded violations for haloacetic acids (HAA5) at this utility in 2012 and 2013.

Above the health goal2

Lead

Comes from pipes, often your own

Above the health goal

1.9ppb

90th percentile, 2024

In the latest period, 9 in 10 homes sampled were at or below 1.9 ppb, below EPA’s action level of 15 ppb. The action level drops to 10 ppb on Nov. 1, 2027. EPA’s health goal for lead is zero.

What handles it

Arsenic

Comes from the source

Above the health goal

1.2ppb

Highest yearly average, 2012 to 2018

2018: not found

Averaged by year, the highest was 1.2 ppb, in 2015: below EPA’s legal limit of 10 ppb, but above its health goal of zero. In 2018, the latest year on file, it wasn’t found in its one sample.

What handles it

What handles it

A certification covers specific claims, not a whole standard. Look for these claims on the certifier’s listing, not the box. Wording varies a little: NSF writes “Lead Reduction,” WQA just “Lead.”

  • NSF/ANSI 53

    Claims: Trihalomethanes (TTHM) Reduction, Lead Reduction, Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=50 ppb Reduction

    For: Total trihalomethanes (TTHM), Lead, Arsenic

    Other certifiers’ wording: VOC Reduction; Arsenic (III) (50 ppb influent level)

  • NSF/ANSI 58

    Claims: Trihalomethanes (TTHM) Reduction, Lead Reduction, Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=50 ppb Reduction

    For: Total trihalomethanes (TTHM), Lead, Arsenic

    Other certifiers’ wording: Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=300 ppb Reduction; Arsenic (V) (300 ppb influent level)

At the tap, or for the whole house?

Lead and copper usually come from pipes and fixtures inside or near your home. A whole-house system sits where water enters, so it cannot catch what your own plumbing adds after it. For those, the filter that counts is the one at the tap. How whole-house systems compare.

What this report can’t tell you

  • Everything else. Nitrate results here are Florida’s own from 2020 on, with EPA’s national file for 2012 to 2019. Haloacetic acids (HAA5), total trihalomethanes (TTHM), arsenic, chromium (total), fluoride and uranium come from EPA’s file alone, which ends in 2019. Camper'S Holiday’s own annual report, which it must send you every year, has newer results for those and the contaminants this page does not show.

  • Your own plumbing. Lead results are the 90th percentile across homes the utility samples. Your home’s service line, solder and fixtures decide yours. A certified lab test is the only way to know.

  • What it means for your health. This page reports what the records show and EPA’s limits and goals; it is not medical advice. If you are worried about a health effect, talk to a doctor or your local health department.

  • Anything after the latest data. SDWIS data is from 2026 Q3; UCMR 5 didn’t sample this utility; Florida’s results run from Dec. 8, 2020 to Dec. 30, 2024; EPA’s compliance samples are from Feb. 8, 2012 to Dec. 11, 2018.

Testing your own tap

Camper'S Holiday’s results are for the water it sends out. What your own service line, solder and fixtures add shows up only in a test of your tap, by a lab Florida certifies.
