Questions
Frequently asked questions
Is West Freehold tap water safe to drink?
PurityMap does not give a safe/unsafe verdict; it shows what the public records measured. For West Freehold, PFOA 7.9 ng/L was measured above the 4 ng/L federal limit in EPA's 2024 testing. FREEHOLD TWP WATER DEPT (PWSID NJ1316001) has a Purity Score of 58/100 (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 West Freehold?
FREEHOLD TWP WATER DEPT (PWS ID NJ1316001) is the public water system on record for West Freehold, New Jersey, serving about 29,831 people. Confirm the utility on your water bill before acting on a specific finding.
Where does West Freehold get its drinking water?
Surface water (primary source of record in EPA SDWIS).
Are PFAS "forever chemicals" in West Freehold's water?
Yes. In EPA's UCMR 5 testing (2024-08-12 to 2025-05-12), PFOA was measured at 7.9 ng/L against a 4 ng/L federal limit. PFBS (3.7 ng/L, below the 2,000 ng/L EPA health advisory) and PFHxA (7.2 ng/L, below the 400,000 ng/L state limit) were also detected. PFBA (8.9 ng/L) and PFPeA (6.6 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.
Is there lead in West Freehold's tap water?
Lead is not in West Freehold'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 West Freehold water report show?
PurityMap's current record for West Freehold holds 31 findings: 2 above a reference, 2 detected within the reference, 2 detected with no limit and 25 not detected. Each finding links to its dated public record; a parameter that was never monitored is shown as pending, not as a pass.
