WATTS PFAS FILTRATION
Remove Forever Chemicals from Your Louisiana Water
A 2023 study found PFAS concentrations in the Mississippi River near Southeast Louisiana at levels 200 to 268 times higher than EPA safety limits. Torres Water has been protecting New Orleans families from water quality threats since 1984 — and PFAS is the most serious we’ve seen yet.
PFAS Is in Louisiana's Water Right Now
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of over 12,000 man-made chemicals that do not break down in the environment or the human body — earning the name “forever chemicals.”
They enter Louisiana’s water supply through industrial runoff, firefighting foam, and contaminated groundwater. The Mississippi River near Southeast Louisiana has tested at PFAS levels 200–268× above EPA safety limits.
Standard municipal water treatment plants cannot remove PFAS. The only proven protection is a certified point-of-use or point-of-entry filtration system installed at your home.
