How to Test for a Wide Range of Well Water Contaminants at a Low Cost

If your family gets drinking water from a private well, do you know if your water is safe to drink? What health risks could you and your family face? Where can you go for help or advice?

It is a good idea to have your well water tested at least once every few years for bacteria and a wide range of organic and inorganic contaminants. These include metals, salts, and chemicals such as pesticides.

This type of comprehensive testing can easily cost over $900, but now you can get 100 contaminants tested for less than $200.

See the Resources and Water Problems tabs for more information what could be causing your water quality issues. We offer a variety of laboratory water quality tests at low costs.
