The Environmental Protection Agency recommends you test your water annually. Even if you are not experiencing any current problems routine testing establishes a history to help resolve issues you may have in the future. Our basic package includes the four tests that are considered to be the minimum you want to know about your water. This test is most often required by loan companies for home purchase.

Total Coliform Bacteria: presence indicates other potentially harmful bacteria may be present.

E-Coli: presence indicates water may be contaminated with human/animal waste.

Nitrates: infants less than 6 months could become seriously ill, if untreated may die. Sources are runoff from fertilizer use; leaking from septic tanks, sewage; erosion of natural deposits.

Nitrites: infants less than 6 months. could become seriously ill and if untreated may die. Sources are runoff from fertilizer use, leaking from septic tanks, sewage and erosion of natural deposits.
Choose a faucet that is a drinking water source inside the house without a pull out sprayer. Also avoid a single lever faucet, as you want cold water sample only. Remove the aerator (the small screen the water flows through) from the faucet. Run the cold water for three to five minutes before proceeding.

After collection immediately store in refrigerator or on ice. Return the samples as soon after sampling as possible. If you are returning samples by UPS or FedEx, ship Monday through Thursday only. If you are returning samples by US Mail ship Monday through Friday only. Make sure your samples are packaged appropriately and ships the same day, no signature requirement.
