The short answer

1 result is above EPA’s legal limit. The worst: Arsenic, above the legal limit. 9 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 March 26, 2025 to Nov. 19, 2025.

Arsenic, fluoride, total trihalomethanes (TTHM), nitrate, chromium (total), haloacetic acids (HAA5) and uranium: Pennsylvania’s own results, samples taken from March 25, 2020 to July 31, 2026, with EPA’s 2012 to 2019 file for earlier years.

PFAS: None of the two PFAS in EPA’s 2024 drinking water rule was found in this utility’s 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.

Above the legal limit1

Arsenic

Comes from the source

Above the legal limit

14.3ppb

Highest yearly average, 2020 to 2026

2026, one sample: 8.0 ppb

Averaged by year, the highest was 14.3 ppb, in 2023, above EPA’s legal limit of 10 ppb. Its highest single sample was 25 ppb. In 2026, the latest year on file, its one sample was 8.0 ppb. EPA recorded violations for arsenic at this utility in 2022, 2023 and 2024. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest yearly average of 8.5 ppb, in 2017.

2025: not found

Averaged by year, the highest was 2.9 ppb, in 2022, below EPA’s legal limit of 80 ppb. In 2025, the latest year on file, it wasn’t found in its one sample. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest yearly average of 3.1 ppb, in 2012.

0.1ppm

Highest sample; found in 1 of 7

2026, one sample: 0.1 ppm

The highest sample, in 2026, was 0.1 ppm, below EPA’s legal limit of 10 ppm. That was also the latest year on file, and its one sample was 0.1 ppm. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest sample of 0.18 ppm, in 2012.

PFAS, from Pennsylvania’s own monitoring

  • PFOA
  • PFOS

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

    Claim: Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=50 ppb Reduction

    For: Arsenic

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

  • NSF/ANSI 58

    Claim: Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=50 ppb Reduction

    For: Arsenic

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

At the tap, or for the whole house?

These come with the water itself, so a whole-house system certified for the same claims treats every tap and shower. A filter at the tap treats drinking water for much less. How whole-house systems compare.

What this report can’t tell you

  • Everything else. Arsenic, fluoride, total trihalomethanes (TTHM), nitrate, chromium (total), haloacetic acids (HAA5) and uranium results here are Pennsylvania’s own from 2020 on, with EPA’s national file for 2012 to 2019. Pinedale 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 March 25, 2020 to July 31, 2026; Pennsylvania’s PFAS results run from March 26, 2025 to Nov. 19, 2025.

Testing your own tap

Pinedale 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.
