Questions
Frequently asked questions
Is Campbell tap water safe to drink?
PurityMap does not give a safe/unsafe verdict; it shows what the public records measured. For Campbell, PFOS 6.2 ng/L was measured above the 4 ng/L federal limit in EPA's 2024 testing. SAN JOSE WATER (PWSID CA4310011) has a Purity Score of 66/100 (confidence: moderate), assessed at the water-system level and computed only from contaminants that were measured. Water can change in your own pipes, so a certified test is the only way to know what comes out of your tap.
Who provides tap water in Campbell?
SAN JOSE WATER (PWS ID CA4310011) is the public water system on record for Campbell, California, serving about 1,039,920 people. Confirm the utility on your water bill before acting on a specific finding.
Where does Campbell get its drinking water?
Surface water (primary source of record in EPA SDWIS).
Are PFAS "forever chemicals" in Campbell's water?
Yes. In EPA's UCMR 5 testing (2023-02-16 to 2025-02-11), PFOS was measured at 6.2 ng/L against a 4 ng/L federal limit. PFHxS was detected below its limit. Reverse osmosis and filters certified to NSF/ANSI 53 for PFOA/PFOS reduce them at the tap.
Is there lead in Campbell's tap water?
Lead is not in Campbell's current published record. Lead usually enters from a building's own pipes and fixtures, so a certified home test is the way to know yours.
What does the latest Campbell water report show?
PurityMap's current record for Campbell holds 31 findings: 1 above a reference, 2 detected within the reference and 28 not detected. Each finding links to its dated public record; a parameter that was never monitored is shown as pending, not as a pass.
