Our Water Quality Tests
Total Coliform
One of the most basic tests for water quality is total coliform. It tests for the presence of total coliform bacteria. If it is detected in your water, it creates unsanitary conditions. Although coliform is not harmful, some strands can make you sick, and that’s what we’re looking for.
Lead & Iron
Hard metals could infiltrate your water and cause sickness. Our comprehensive tests will tell you if your water has iron or lead in it.
PH
The pH of your home’s water should be between 6.5 and 7.5 to ensure the best quality. We perform different tests on the water to confirm if the pH is balanced.
Hardness
Hard water stains are an eyesore, but they could mean your water is high in Calcium and Magnesium, amongst other minerals; this can cause skin dryness and itchiness, leading to other severe skin conditions. We will test the hardness of the water to ensure it’s safe to drink and use.
