— QUICK WATER SUMMARY

What your water provider reported.

Sanford draws from the Floridan Aquifer. The City reports low-level 1,4-dioxane associated with groundwater contamination near a former industrial site and is planning treatment upgrades for 1,4-dioxane and PFAS. June 2026 treated-water results were below Florida's health-based guidance level. This does not establish the level at every private tap, and the City's statement should not be read as a countywide finding.

Start with the simple list below. Open See details to see whether the comparison is a legal limit, a health benchmark or another value used in the official report.

UTILITY REPORTDescribes the public system

Useful for source water, treatment and provider-wide monitoring.

PROPERTY TESTMeasures one address

Needed when the concern involves a building, service line, private well or exact tap.

IMPORTANTOne does not replace the other

A compliant utility report cannot rule out a plumbing issue inside one property.

REPORT COMPARISON VALUE15 ppb action level

Legal limits are enforceable. Health benchmarks and goals may be non-enforceable comparison values.

REPORT STATUSAction level not exceeded
TREATMENT CONTEXTCertified point-of-use RO or contaminant-specific filtration is commonly evaluated.
Hardness and TDS can vary from street to street.

A provider report cannot tell us the exact levels at your tap. We need to test your home to give you an accurate measurement.

*Provider reports describe the public distribution system—not the water at a specific home. Actual results vary by service address, plumbing, seasonal utility conditions and system configuration. A softener does not necessarily reduce TDS. Address-specific testing is required before treatment is recommended.
