The story

The Patel family called us four days after their daughter's first formula bottle. They had read the EPA PFAS announcement and wanted to know what was in the water they were mixing the formula with.

Their kitchen tap tested at 612 ppm TDS, 17 gpg hardness, and showed PFOA detections at 5.2 parts per trillion. The EPA enforceable limit is 4 ppt.

We installed a Sanctuary tier: whole-home pre-sediment and catalytic carbon, an ion-exchange softener sized to their 4-person household, a 4-stage RO with remineralization under the kitchen, and a UV reactor on the main line.

Post-install, the kitchen tap reads 18 ppm TDS, 0 gpg hardness, no detectable PFOA, no detectable PFOS. The full system commissioning took 6 hours because we ran the well-water train upfront for piece-of-mind even on a city-water build.

We were going to mail off bottled water for the formula every month. Aqua Wellness's install is a one-time number that wipes that out for years.
