Epichlorohydrin in Paradise Park Florida Water

Unhealthy Levels of Epichlorohydrin in the Water Supply of Paradise Park Florida Homes

Epichlorohydrin is an industrial chemical that can occasionally appear in drinking water at very low levels, sometimes linked to materials or steps used in water treatment and distribution. Because it usually has no noticeable taste or odor, Paradise Park homeowners won’t necessarily detect it by drinking or smelling their tap water. Still, many families prefer to limit potential chemical exposure where practical — especially in our humid subtropical area where water is used heavily year-round. A whole-house system treats every faucet and fixture, so protection isn’t limited to just the kitchen sink.

Epichlorohydrin is considered a contaminant of health concern rather than a simple aesthetic issue, so it’s sensible to think about all the ways you come into contact with water at home. Cooking, brushing teeth, washing dishes and showering can all increase exposure to trace chemicals over time. In Paradise Park, some homes on private wells may see variable water quality, so whole-house treatment can be added without changing how your family uses water; the objective is to deliver cleaner water throughout the house with equipment sized for your household’s needs.
