Honestly? For peace of mind, yes. Most cities have low PFAS levels, but “low” isn’t “none.” If you’re near a military base, airport, or factory, the levels might spike. Testing your water is step one.
You can buy a simple test kit online. Dip a strip, wait, and see. It’s like a pH test but for the scary stuff. If PFAS show up, you’ll know exactly which filter to buy.
