Frequently Asked Questions about ZIP 00795 Tap Water

What contaminants are above EPA limits in ZIP 00795?

ZIP 00795 has 7 contaminants above EPA health guidelines in the latest available data, including PFPeA at 36.7x the EPA guideline. The full table on this page lists every tested compound and its measured level.

Will boiling ZIP 00795 tap water remove PFPeA?

No. Boiling does not remove PFAS, and the compounds can actually become more concentrated as water evaporates. To reduce PFAS at home, use a filter independently certified to NSF/ANSI P473 (activated-carbon pitcher or under-sink) or NSF/ANSI 58 (reverse osmosis).

Do basic pitcher filters remove PFPeA?

Most basic pitcher filters are only certified to NSF/ANSI 42 or 53, which do not cover PFAS. Look for a filter independently certified to NSF/ANSI P473 (activated-carbon pitcher or under-sink) or NSF/ANSI 58 (reverse osmosis) on the spec sheet.

Who provides tap water in ZIP 00795?

Public records identify ARUZ as a primary water system associated with ZIP 00795. Service boundaries can vary by address, so confirm exact service with the utility.

When was ZIP 00795 tap water last tested?

The most recent test date used in this report is May 2025. EnviroClarity last refreshed this page on 2026-05-05.

Where can I find the official water quality report for ZIP 00795?

Every U.S. public water system is required to publish an annual Consumer Confidence Report (CCR). Contact ARUZ or visit their website for the latest official report covering ZIP 00795. The EPA also maintains a national CCR locator.
