Water Testing

Annual Tests

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)

Other Tests

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)
