Certified Filters for Cottonwood Tap Water
Benzene was detected above EPA limits. These filters are independently certified to reduce common drinking-water contaminants.
Pitcher filter
Epic Pure XP Water Filter Pitcher
NSF-certified dual-layer filtration reduces 70+ contaminants including PFAS, lead, chlorine, microplastics, and bacteria.
NSF/ANSI 42, 53, 401 & P473Removes 99.99% PFASMade in USABPA-free
PFAS detected in 86326 · What you can do
Here's what actually removes PFAS from your water
The right filter eliminates PFAS at the tap. But not all filters do - and the type you choose matters for your home.
Common pitchers like Brita do not remove PFAS. You need a filter independently certified to NSF P473 (for pitcher filters) or NSF/ANSI 58 (for reverse osmosis systems). All three options below carry the relevant certification.
Certified PFAS filter types - how they differ
Certified Pitcher
Removes PFAS (99%+)
No installation, works today
Lowest upfront cost (~$70)
Must refill manually
Filters only what you pour in - not cooking water
Reverse Osmosis More complete
Removes PFAS + lead, arsenic, nitrates & more
Always-on - no refilling ever
Noticeably better tasting water
Filters drinking & cooking water automatically
Higher upfront cost ($200-$400)

Frequently Asked Questions about ZIP 86326 Tap Water
What contaminants are above EPA limits in ZIP 86326?
ZIP 86326 has 14 contaminants above EPA health guidelines in the latest available data, including Benzene at 1990.0x the EPA guideline. The full table on this page lists every tested compound and its measured level.
Will boiling ZIP 86326 tap water remove Benzene?
Boiling tap water can kill many pathogens, but it does not remove most chemical contaminants tracked in EPA monitoring. Several dissolved contaminants can even concentrate as water evaporates. For the chemical contaminants reported in ZIP 86326, a certified filter is more reliable.
Do basic pitcher filters remove Benzene?
Basic pitcher filters are typically rated for chlorine, taste, and odor (NSF/ANSI 42), not for the broader list of contaminants tracked in EPA monitoring. Match the certification (NSF/ANSI 42, 53, 58, or P473) to the specific compounds listed in this report before assuming a filter helps.
Who provides tap water in ZIP 86326?
Public records identify COTTONWOOD MUNICIPAL WATER VV6 as a primary water system associated with ZIP 86326. Service boundaries can vary by address, so confirm exact service with the utility.
When was ZIP 86326 tap water last tested?
The most recent test date used in this report is October 2025. EnviroClarity last refreshed this page on 2026-05-04.
Where can I find the official water quality report for ZIP 86326?
Every U.S. public water system is required to publish an annual Consumer Confidence Report (CCR). Contact COTTONWOOD MUNICIPAL WATER VV6 or visit their website for the latest official report covering ZIP 86326. The EPA also maintains a national CCR locator.
