To protect those who drink your water, you should test annually for:

• Total Coliform Bacteria (to ensure bacteriologically safe water)
• Nitrate Nitrogen (to prevent blue-baby disease)

In addition,  you may want to check other water qualities:

• Total Dissolved Solids (high TDS may indicate objectionable levels of dissolved minerals)
• Hardness(can ruin water heater elements, make laundry difficult)
• Iron (metallic taste, stains clothes and fixtures)
• pH (may be corrosive if out of range)
• Lead (if house was built before 1991 and has metal plumbing)
