- Fruitland Park-Lady Lake CCD, FL
- Leesburg CCD, FL
- Fruitland Park
The short answer for Fruitland Park
Fruitland Park tap water has 2 contaminants above EPA guidelines, including PFHxS at 1.8× the limit (tested October 2025). See the full compound-by-compound breakdown and filter recommendations.
The health risk for Fruitland Park
- PFBS, PFHxS above limit.
PFHxS (a PFAS 'forever chemical') was detected above EPA limits. These filters are independently certified to reduce common drinking-water contaminants.
Here's what actually removes PFAS from your water
The right filter eliminates PFAS at the tap. But not all filters do - and the type you choose matters for your home.
Common pitchers like Brita do not remove PFAS. You need a filter independently certified to NSF P473 (for pitcher filters) or NSF/ANSI 58 (for reverse osmosis systems). All three options below carry the relevant certification.

Frequently Asked Questions about ZIP 34731 Tap Water
What contaminants are above EPA limits in ZIP 34731?
ZIP 34731 has 2 contaminants above EPA health guidelines in the latest available data, including PFHxS at 1.8x the EPA guideline. The full table on this page lists every tested compound and its measured level.
Will boiling ZIP 34731 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 34731?
Public records identify FRUITLAND PARK, CITY OF (3 WPS) as a primary water system associated with ZIP 34731. Service boundaries can vary by address, so confirm exact service with the utility.
When was ZIP 34731 tap water last tested?
The most recent test date used in this report is October 2025. EnviroClarity last refreshed this page on 2026-05-05.
Where can I find the official water quality report for ZIP 34731?
Every U.S. public water system is required to publish an annual Consumer Confidence Report (CCR). Contact FRUITLAND PARK, CITY OF (3 WPS) or visit their website for the latest official report covering ZIP 34731. The EPA also maintains a national CCR locator.
