Hexafluoropropylene oxide dimer acid (HFPO-DA)
91.1ng/L
Each block = 10 ng/L federal MCL (2024)
Short answer: Three PFAS, HFPO-DA (GenX), PFOA and PFOS, are above their federal limits (2024 limits that water systems have until at least 2029 to meet); 1 more is detected with no federal limit, and everything else measured is within its reference or not detected. Greenwood CPW (2410001) serves 52,022 residents.

GREENWOOD CPW (2410001) (EPA PWSID SC2410001) delivers surface water to 52,022 residents. This report reflects 29 individual PFAS result(s) from the source UCMR5 observations and the latest Lead & Copper Rule 90th-percentile result. Water hardness and disinfectant type are pending the utility's own annual report.
0health-based violations in the last 10 years
From EPA SDWIS. A clean violation history means no enforcement action was recorded; it does not cover contaminants without a limit.
No result is not a pass. Your utility's annual water quality report may list them, and a certified lab test covers your own tap.
Plumbing inside a home can add lead that the system record can't show. A tap test tells you what reaches your glass.
HFPO-DA (GenX) 91.1 ng/L, above the 10 ng/L limit (+5 more PFAS detected)
lead 4 µg/L, below the 15 µg/L action level
Screening tells you if something is worth a closer look; a lab result is the number you can act on.

Safe Home (EnviroTestKits)
Lead, read as one of three ranges: 0–4, 5–15 or 15+ ppb
What it can't tell you: It shows a lead range, not an exact level, and tests nothing else unless you pay extra for the optional lab test.
Lab-certified results

50+ substances, including lead, copper, arsenic, nitrate, hardness and coliform bacteria
What it can't tell you: It does not test PFAS, and not every result on the panel falls under the lab's accredited scope.

PurityMap does not give a safe/unsafe verdict; it shows what the public records measured. For Greenwood, HFPO-DA (GenX) 91.1 ng/L (limit 10 ng/L), PFOS 8.7 ng/L (limit 4 ng/L) and PFOA 5.9 ng/L (limit 4 ng/L) were measured above their limits in EPA's 2024 testing; the lead 90th-percentile result was 4 µg/L against the 15 µg/L action level. GREENWOOD CPW (2410001) (PWSID SC2410001) has a Purity Score of 52/100 (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.
GREENWOOD CPW (2410001) (PWS ID SC2410001) is the public water system on record for Greenwood, South Carolina, serving about 52,022 people. Confirm the utility on your water bill before acting on a specific finding.
Surface water (primary source of record in EPA SDWIS).
Yes. In EPA's UCMR 5 testing (2025-03-04 to 2025-12-03), HFPO-DA (GenX) was measured at 91.1 ng/L against a 10 ng/L federal limit, PFOS was measured at 8.7 ng/L against a 4 ng/L federal limit and PFOA was measured at 5.9 ng/L against a 4 ng/L federal limit. PFBS (4.6 ng/L, below the 2,000 ng/L EPA health advisory) and PFHxA (6.1 ng/L, below the 400,000 ng/L state limit) were also detected. PFPeA (7 ng/L) was also detected; it has no federal or state limit. Reverse osmosis and filters certified to NSF/ANSI 53 for PFOA/PFOS reduce them at the tap.
GREENWOOD CPW (2410001)'s most recent lead 90th-percentile result (2021–2023) was 4 µg/L, below the 15 µg/L action level. That figure comes from sampled homes; lead usually enters from a building's own pipes and fixtures, so only a test at your tap tells you what you drink.
PurityMap's current record for Greenwood holds 31 findings: 3 above a reference, 3 detected within the reference, 1 detected with no limit and 24 not detected. Each finding links to its dated public record; a parameter that was never monitored is shown as pending, not as a pass.
