PFAS Removal for Harbison Canyon homes, done by licensed San Diego County technicians. PFAS, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, are a family of synthetic chemicals that do not break down in the environment or the human body.

Harbison Canyon: Harbison Canyon sits at 1,400 feet in the foothills east of El Cajon with hot summers and significant WUI fire-zone exposure. Almost all homes are on private wells. Groundwater here runs moderately hard with dissolved iron, and the foothill geology produces water quality similar to the neighboring Alpine and Crest communities.
