The short answer for Forest City (32714)

Altamonte Springs tap water has 6 detected contaminants, currently below EPA limits (tested August 2024). PFHxS measured closest to the threshold. See the full compound-by-compound report.

The health risk for Altamonte Springs

PFAS traces were detected in local water tests, though levels are currently below EPA limits. Since no amount of PFAS is considered completely safe by health researchers, a certified filter adds a meaningful layer of protection, especially for children.

PFAS or other chemicals detected; no confirmed exceedances in multiple samples.

Frequently Asked Questions about ZIP 32714 Tap Water

What's in ZIP 32714 tap water?

ZIP 32714 has 6 detected contaminants below EPA limits in this dataset. PFHxS measured closest to its guideline.

Will boiling ZIP 32714 tap water remove PFHxS?

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 PFHxS?

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 32714?

Public records identify ALTAMONTE SPRINGS WATER DEPT (2 WPS) as a primary water system associated with ZIP 32714. Service boundaries can vary by address, so confirm exact service with the utility.

When was ZIP 32714 tap water last tested?

The most recent test date used in this report is December 2024. EnviroClarity last refreshed this page on 2026-05-05.

Where can I find the official water quality report for ZIP 32714?

Every U.S. public water system is required to publish an annual Consumer Confidence Report (CCR). Contact ALTAMONTE SPRINGS WATER DEPT (2 WPS) or visit their website for the latest official report covering ZIP 32714. The EPA also maintains a national CCR locator.
