Test, remove PFAS using certified methods, keep records, retest, and tell the client. This protects you if PFAS becomes a problem later.

To test and certify PFAS removal effectively, renovators should follow these steps:

  1. Utilize EPA-approved testing methods, such as:
    -EPA Method 8327: For detecting PFAS in liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS)
    -EPA Method 537.1: For determining PFAA concentrations in drinking water
    -EPA Method 1633: For detecting 40 PFAS compounds in various samples, including wastewater, surface water, and soil
