Questions people ask

Who is my water provider in Palm Beach County?

Seminole Manor Water System is the main water provider for Palm Beach County. Some addresses can be served by a different system, so check your water bill: it names your utility.

How do I contact Seminole Manor Water System?

Use the phone number or website on your water bill. Billing and outages are handled by the utility, not by ScoreYourWater.

Which ZIP codes does Seminole Manor Water System serve?

EPA water system boundaries do not match Seminole Manor Water System to any ZIP code area in our data. Your water bill names your utility. Source: EPA Water System Boundaries (CWS service area boundaries) v3.0, March 2026 release.

Does Seminole Manor Water System buy water from another system, or sell water to others?

Seminole Manor Water System buys water from Palm Beach County Water Utilities and City of Lake Worth Beach Utilities. In this data, Whispering Pines MHP buys water from it. (July to September 2026 extract.)

How many contaminants in Seminole Manor Water System's water are above published health guidelines?

1 of 27 detected contaminants were above their published health guidelines in EPA SDWA, EPA UCMR and Florida DEP data, 2018-2025. The highest: Arsenic at 90 times its guideline. PFOS averaged above 4.0 ppt, the limit in EPA's 2024 PFAS rule (water systems must meet it by April 2029; EPA has proposed allowing until 2031).

What is chloramine, and does Seminole Manor Water System use it?

Chloramine is a disinfectant made by combining chlorine and ammonia. Some water systems use it in place of free chlorine. The public data used on this site (EPA SDWA, EPA UCMR and Florida DEP data) does not record which disinfectant Seminole Manor Water System uses, so we do not say. Your utility can tell you.

How is the Water Score for Seminole Manor Water System calculated?

The score starts at 100. It goes down 8 for each contaminant above a cited health guideline whose source states a cancer basis, 5 for each other contaminant above its cited guideline, 5 for each of PFOA and PFOS averaging above the 4.0 ppt limit in EPA's 2024 PFAS rule, 10 for each contaminant whose average of all samples is above EPA's legal limit (instead of its guideline step), and 1 for each contaminant with a cited cancer-based guideline that is detected below it. Only guidelines with a cited document count. The lowest score is 5. Higher is better. For this report: 100 minus 8 times 1, minus 5 times 1 (PFOS average above 4.0 ppt, the limit in EPA's 2024 PFAS rule) is 87, so the score is 87.

What is the difference between a health guideline and a legal limit?

A legal limit is an enforceable standard, set by the EPA under the Safe Drinking Water Act. Limits weigh health research together with the cost and feasibility of treatment. A health guideline is published by public-health sources and based on health research alone. A utility can meet every legal limit and still be above a published health guideline.
