Recommended Buyer Guides for Erie County

These buyer guides are matched by rule rather than by hand - a PFAS record adds a PFAS filter guide, a lead action-level exceedance adds lead filter guides, a high share of pre-1978 homes adds lead paint test kits, EPA Radon Zone 1 add radon kits, and a top flood or wildfire risk adds related equipment.
