Protecting Your Home with Water Quality Testing

Why Water Testing Matters

Your home's water supply is a vital resource, and ensuring its quality is crucial for your family's health. That's why we offer two essential water sample tests:

Bacteria Test: This test screens for harmful bacteria like E. coli and total coliforms, which can pose serious health risks.

**Bacteria Test sampling comes included with our Water Systems Inspection**


Water Composition Test: This comprehensive test identifies common chemicals and trace metals that may be present in your water, such as arsenic, lead, and nitrate.


How Often Should You Test Your Water?

To maintain optimal water quality, we recommend the following testing schedule:

Bacteria Test: Twice a year 

Water Competition Test: Every three years


Factors Affecting Water Quality

Several factors can influence the quality of your water, including:

Natural Sources: Groundwater can contain naturally occurring minerals and chemicals.

Human Activities: Nearby agricultural practices, industrial activities, and improper waste disposal can contaminate water sources.

Weather Conditions: Heavy rains, droughts, and floods can impact water quality.

Service or Changes to Your System: Servicing or making changes to your system can potentially introduce contaminates.
