The short answer

3 results are above the health goal. The worst: PFOA, above the health goal. 12 health-based violations since 2016.

What handles it

What was found

PFAS: Pennsylvania’s own results under its PFAS rule, entry point samples taken from Feb. 18, 2025 to Dec. 17, 2025.

Lead and copper: EPA SDWIS monitoring periods ending 1993.

Uranium, nitrate, total trihalomethanes (TTHM), arsenic, chromium (total), fluoride and haloacetic acids (HAA5): Pennsylvania’s own results, samples taken from Feb. 18, 2020 to Feb. 12, 2026, with EPA’s 2012 to 2019 file for earlier years.

PFAS: PFOA was found, of the six PFAS in EPA’s 2024 drinking water rule; its result is below.

PFOS4.0 pptNot foundNot found in any of 4 samples
Results from Pennsylvania’s own PFAS monitoring, samples where water enters the pipes; each compound’s card has its four-quarter averages, the way limits are judged. The limits are EPA’s 2024 rule, with compliance due from 2029; EPA has since proposed changes to some of them, explained on each compound’s page. Pennsylvania’s own limits for PFOA and PFOS are in force now. PFBS has no limit of its own and counts only toward EPA’s Hazard Index, which TapBuff works out only from UCMR 5’s averages, so it isn’t given here.

About PFAS certifications

NSF’s PFAS claims are tested to below 20 ppt. EPA’s limit is 4.0 ppt, and EPA says no certification yet shows a filter reaching its levels.

Above the health goal3

PFOA

Comes from the source

Above the health goal

3.0ppt

Highest sample, Feb. 18, 2025; found in 4 of 4

2025 average: 2.7 ppt

The highest sample was 3.0 ppt: below EPA’s new limit of 4.0 ppt, which takes effect in 2029, but above its health goal of zero. Averaged over four quarters at one entry point, the way both Pennsylvania’s limit and EPA’s are judged, the highest was 2.7 ppt, for the year to Dec. 31, 2025: below Pennsylvania’s limit of 14 ppt and below EPA’s new limit of 4.0 ppt. Its only year on file is 2025, when its four samples averaged 2.7 ppt.

What handles it

Lead

Comes from pipes, often your own

Above the health goal

1.9ppb

90th percentile, 1993

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

Uranium

Comes from the source

Above the health goal

1.5ppb

Highest yearly average, 2022

Averaged by year, the highest was 1.5 ppb, in 2022: below EPA’s legal limit of 30 ppb, but above its health goal of zero. That is the only year on file.

What handles it

Below EPA’s limits2

Nitrate

Comes from the source

Below EPA’s limits

4.2ppm

Highest sample; found in 7 of 7

2026, one sample: 2.7 ppm

The highest sample, in 2024, was 4.2 ppm, below EPA’s legal limit of 10 ppm. In 2026, the latest year on file, its one sample was 2.7 ppm. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest sample of 4.4 ppm, in 2012.

What handles it

  • NSF/ANSI 58 look for “Nitrate/Nitrite Reduction”
  • NSF/ANSI 53 look for “Nitrate/Nitrite (30 ppm challenge)”

Total trihalomethanes (TTHM)

Below EPA’s limits

2.9ppb

Highest yearly average, 2022 to 2025

Averaged by year, the highest was 2.9 ppb, in 2025, below EPA’s legal limit of 80 ppb. That was also the latest year on file.

What handles it

  • NSF/ANSI 53 look for “Trihalomethanes (TTHM) Reduction”

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: PFOA Reduction, Lead Reduction

    For: PFOA, Lead

    Other certifiers’ wording: Total PFAS Reduction; Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA)

  • NSF/ANSI 58

    Claims: Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA), Lead Reduction, Uranium

    For: PFOA, Lead, Uranium

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. Uranium, nitrate, total trihalomethanes (TTHM), arsenic, chromium (total), fluoride and haloacetic acids (HAA5) results here are Pennsylvania’s own from 2020 on, with EPA’s national file for 2012 to 2019. Green Acres Mobile Home Park’s own annual report, which it must send you every year, has 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; Pennsylvania’s results run from Feb. 18, 2020 to Feb. 12, 2026; Pennsylvania’s PFAS results run from Feb. 18, 2025 to Dec. 17, 2025.

Testing your own tap

Green Acres Mobile Home Park’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 Pennsylvania certifies.
