Plumbing inside a home can add lead that the system record can't show. A tap test tells you what reaches your glass.
PFOS 34.7 ng/L, above the 4 ng/L limit (+8 more PFAS detected)
lead 0.6 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.

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
ETR Laboratories
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 Pembroke Pines, PFOS 34.7 ng/L and PFOA 14.4 ng/L were measured above the 4 ng/L federal limit in EPA's 2024 testing; the lead 90th-percentile result was 0.6 µg/L against the 15 µg/L action level; one health-based violation is on record (E. coli). PEMBROKE PINES, CITY OF (PWSID FL4061083) has a Purity Score of 60/100 (confidence: high), 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.
PEMBROKE PINES, CITY OF (PWS ID FL4061083) is the public water system on record for Pembroke Pines, Florida, serving about 187,459 people. Confirm the utility on your water bill before acting on a specific finding.
Groundwater (primary source of record in EPA SDWIS).
Yes. In EPA's UCMR 5 testing (2023-03-15 to 2023-09-11), PFOS was measured at 34.7 ng/L against a 4 ng/L federal limit and PFOA was measured at 14.4 ng/L against a 4 ng/L federal limit. PFBS (9.8 ng/L, below the 2,000 ng/L EPA health advisory), PFHxA (18.4 ng/L, below the 400,000 ng/L state limit) and PFHxS (9.1 ng/L, below the 10 ng/L federal limit) were also detected. 6:2 FTS (39.1 ng/L), PFBA (12.2 ng/L), PFHpA (10 ng/L) and PFPeA (23.9 ng/L) were also detected; they have no federal or state limit. Reverse osmosis and filters certified to NSF/ANSI 53 for PFOA/PFOS reduce them at the tap.
PEMBROKE PINES, CITY OF's most recent lead 90th-percentile result (2024) was 0.6 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.
The federal SDWIS record lists a health-based violation for PEMBROKE PINES, CITY OF within about the last ten years: E. coli (2023). The findings above show each one's status.
