Types of Water Tests

hardness water testing

Hardness Testing

Hardness can cause too much soap or detergent usage and also scaling. Hardness is caused primarily by calcium and magnesium.

chlorine water testing

Chlorine Testing

Chlorination is the most common solution used for disinfection of water. Not all types of bacteria are harmful. Biological contamination has two forms, pathogenic (disease causing) and non-pathogenic (non-disease causing). All water supplies should be tested for biological content prior to use and consumption.

arsenic water testing

Arsenic Testing

Arsenic can cause stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, numbness in hands and feet, partial paralysis, and blindness. It can also cause damage to the skin, circulatory system, and increase the risk of cancer. MCL = .01 or .05 (depending on local standards for your area).

nitrate water testing

Nitrate Testing

Nitrates are naturally found in many types of food. High levels of nitrates in drinking water, however, can make you sick. Nitrates in your well-water can come from animal waste, septic systems, flooded sewers, water runoff, fertilizers and decaying plants. MCL = 10 ppm.

tds

TDS Testing

Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) refer to minerals, salts, and metals dissolved in water. This includes anything present in the water other than pure water and suspended solids. MCL = 500 ppm.

iron water testing

Iron Testing

Iron levels as low as 0.2 to 0.3 ppm will usually cause brown or reddish staining of laundry and plumbing fixtures. The presence of iron bacteria in water supplies will often cause these symptoms at even lower levels. MCL = 0.3 ppm.

manganese water testing

Manganese Testing

Manganese is seldom found alone in water. It is usually found alongside Iron. The color black is often seen in some regard when manganese is present. MCL = 0.05 ppm.

ph water testing

pH Testing

pH is the measurement of the activity of the hydrogen ion, H+. It is recommended to test the acidity and alkaline condition of your water. A pH of 7.5 – 8.5 is recommended.

sodium water testing

Sodium Testing

Sodium intake from water is only a small fraction of that consumed in a normal diet. People suffering from certain medical conditions, such as hypertension, may require a sodium restricted diet. In this case, the intake of sodium from drinking water could become significant. MCL = 150 ppm.

sulfur water testing

Sulfur Testing

Sulfur problems are distinctive, as you’ll notice the “rotten egg” odor of hydrogen sulfide gas. Similar to odors caused by iron bacteria, the sulfur smell may only be noticeable when the water hasn’t been run for several hours.

turbidity water testing

Turbidity Testing

Turbidity refers to how clear the water is. The higher the amount of total suspended solids (TSS), the higher the turbidity levels are, and the cloudier the water appears. It may be clay and silt from shoreline erosion, bottom sediments, or organic debris from stream and wastewater discharge.
