EPA records for DAVIE, TOWN OF, #3 ; #5 • Updated October 2026
Grade A — based on EPA compliance records, lead testing and PFAS monitoring
DAVIE, TOWN OF, #3 ; #5 has a clean recent record: no health-based violations in the last five years and no lead, PFAS or historical monitoring result that costs it more than a few points.
Yes — by EPA's records Davie, FL tap water is safe to drink and earns an A. The grade rests on no health-based EPA violations in the last five years and lead at 2.5 ppb (90th percentile, 2023) against the 15 ppb action level. Lead from your own service line or plumbing is the main risk city-level data cannot see, so homes built before 1986 should still test at the tap.

DAVIE, TOWN OF, #3 ; #5's most recent Lead and Copper Rule result (2023-01-01 to 2023-12-01) was 2.5 ppb at the 90th percentile, below EPA's 15 ppb action level. Because lead usually comes from service lines and household plumbing, homes built before 1986 should still test at the tap.
No. None of the 116 UCMR5 PFAS results for DAVIE, TOWN OF, #3 ; #5 (2024-09-16 to 2025-03-04) were at or above the reporting limit of roughly 3–5 ppt.
DAVIE, TOWN OF, #3 ; #5 has 33 violations on file since 2016: 0 health-based in the last five years and 31 monitoring or reporting violations in that window. Monitoring violations are paperwork lapses, not measured contamination.
DAVIE, TOWN OF, #3 ; #5 reports groundwater as its primary source and serves about 26,000 people (EPA PWSID FL4060344).
Not on the strength of EPA's data for DAVIE, TOWN OF, #3 ; #5. A filter still helps with taste and with lead from your own plumbing, which no city-level test can measure.

EPA Lead and Copper Rule 90th-percentile results reported by DAVIE, TOWN OF, #3 ; #5
Well below the 15 ppb action level. In the most recent monitoring period on file (2023-01-01 to 2023-12-01), 90% of the homes DAVIE, TOWN OF, #3 ; #5 sampled had lead at or below 2.5 ppb.
EPA's action level is 15 ppb (dropping to 10 ppb under the 2024 Lead and Copper Rule Improvements). There is no safe level of lead; the 90th-percentile figure describes the system, not your tap — homes with lead service lines or pre-1986 plumbing can be higher.
| Monitoring period | Lead 90th percentile | vs 15 ppb action level |
|---|---|---|
| 2023-01-01 → 2023-12-01 | 2.5 ppb | Well below the 15 ppb action level |

EPA UCMR5 monitoring, 2024-09-16 to 2025-03-04 · 116 PFAS results at entry points to the distribution system
No PFAS detected. None of the 116 UCMR5 PFAS results for DAVIE, TOWN OF, #3 ; #5 were at or above the method reporting limit. Reporting limits are about 3–5 ppt, so “not detected” means below that threshold — not proven zero.
| Compound | Detects / samples | Max (ppt) | Reporting limit | EPA MCL |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PFOA | 0 / 4 | < 4 | 4 ppt | 4 ppt |
| PFOS | 0 / 4 | < 4 | 4 ppt | 4 ppt |
| PFHxS | 0 / 4 | < 3 | 3 ppt | 10 ppt |
| PFNA | 0 / 4 | < 4 | 4 ppt | 10 ppt |
| HFPO-DA | 0 / 4 | < 5 | 5 ppt | 10 ppt |
| PFBS | 0 / 4 | < 3 | 3 ppt | hazard index only |
“< 4 ppt” means below the laboratory reporting limit, not zero. ppt = parts per trillion (ng/L). Results are for finished water leaving the treatment plant.

EPA Six-Year Review 4 compliance samples for DAVIE, TOWN OF, #3 ; #5 · finished water only · dated data, released 2024
These are the regulated-contaminant samples DAVIE, TOWN OF, #3 ; #5 reported to its state between 2012 and 2019 — the most recent nationwide sample-level dataset EPA has published. Every scored contaminant stayed within its Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) and averaged below 80% of the limit. Treat this as history, not today's tap water.
| Contaminant | Samples | Average | Max | EPA limit | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Arsenic | 42 detects | 0.35 µg/L | 0.7 µg/L | 10 µg/LMCL | Within MCL |
| Nitrate (as N) | 1917 detects | 0.148 mg/L | 0.83 mg/L | 10 mg/LMCL | Within MCL |
| Fluoride | 8 | 0.434 mg/L | 0.69 mg/L | 4 mg/LMCL | Within MCL |
| Chromium (total) | 40 detects | 0 µg/L | ND | 100 µg/LMCL | Not detected |
| Uranium (combined) | 2 | 0.123 µg/L | 0.131 µg/L | 30 µg/LMCL | Within MCL |
| Total trihalomethanes (TTHM) | 163121 detects | 10.398 µg/L | 76.7 µg/L | 80 µg/LMCL (LRAA) | Within MCL |
| Haloacetic acids (HAA5) | 165138 detects | 9.122 µg/L | 53 µg/L | 60 µg/LMCL (LRAA) | Within MCL |
| Lead (tap samples) | 40 detects | 0 µg/L | ND | 15 µg/Laction level (90th percentile) | Reported, not scored (compliance is on the 90th percentile) |
| Copper (tap samples) | 41 detects | 0.15 µg/L | 0.6 µg/L | 1300 µg/Laction level (90th percentile) | Reported, not scored (compliance is on the 90th percentile) |
Averages count non-detects as zero. TTHM and HAA5 limits are locational running annual averages, so a single high sample is not a violation — we grade those on the average only. Lead and copper rows are individual tap samples and are shown for context; compliance (and our score) uses the 90th-percentile result above. LRAA = locational running annual average; ND = not detected.

Groundwater systems draw from wells; naturally occurring arsenic, nitrate, radium and uranium are the readings to watch, along with PFAS near industrial or military sites.
How to test your tap water and the treatment options that actually fit Davie homes
The most reliable way to know what is actually coming out of your tap is a certified mail-in lab test. City-wide EPA data (like the report above) reflects the water leaving the treatment plant, but contaminants such as lead and copper can be picked up from your own service line and household plumbing — so the water at your Davie faucet can differ from the system average. A state-certified lab measures dozens of contaminants at once with results you can trust; you can also find one near you through the EPA's certified-lab list at epa.gov/dwlabcert. Hardware-store test strips are cheaper and instant, but they only screen for a few basics (chlorine, hardness, pH, and a rough lead pass/fail) and are far less accurate — treat them as a first look, not a diagnosis.
Match the treatment to what your test finds. Reverse osmosis (RO) removes the widest range of contaminants — lead, arsenic, nitrate, PFAS, and dissolved solids — which makes an under-sink reverse osmosis system the most thorough choice for Davie households with heavy-metal or PFAS concerns. If your main issue is taste, odor, or chlorine, an activated carbon filter (pitcher, faucet, or under-sink) is simpler and cheaper and handles chlorine and many organic compounds well, though carbon alone does not remove arsenic, nitrate, or most PFAS. NSF-certified pitchers rated for lead reduction are the easiest way to start today while you decide on a permanent setup.
