Know The Quality of Your Drinking Water!

What Testing Can Reveal?

  • dangerous levels of bacteria, including E. coli and coliform;
  • elevated levels of nitrates and nitrites from fertilizers that leach into the groundwater;
  • fluoride levels;
  • mineral contaminants, such as iron and arsenic;
  • heavy metal contamination, including lead; and
  • water hardness.

No natural water source is completely free of impurities; contaminants and pathogens must be monitored and mitigated. Unlike public drinking water systems which are being regulated by EPA, private water wells do not have experts regularly checking the water’s source and its quality before it is sent to the tap. If your water supply comes from a private water well, you must take special precautions to ensure the protection and maintenance of your drinking water supplies.

Have your water tested periodically. It is recommended that water be tested every year for total coliform bacteria, nitrates, total dissolved solids, and pH levels. If you suspect other contaminants, test for those. Always use a state-certified laboratory that conducts drinking water tests. Consult your InterNACHI inspector for information about how to go about water testing!
