Why is Water Testing So Important?

If you don't test your water, you risk drinking contaminants that harm your long-term health or damaging your appliances. Here are some of the most common problems caused by not knowing what’s in your water:

  • Hard water issues - Caused by excess calcium or magnesium, leading to residue on sinks, utensils, and fixtures. Common in well water but can occur in city supplies too.

  • Viral or bacterial contamination - Pathogens thrive in water, causing vomiting, fever, or diarrhea. They can enter the body through drinking, bathing, or even eye and nose contact.

  • Lead - A toxic metal that enters through corroded pipes, especially dangerous for children and long-term health.

  • Pesticides and run-off - Harmful chemicals from farming seep into wells and water systems, posing risks for humans and pets.

  • Plastic particles - Microscopic plastics from pollution end up in water and food chains. Testing helps ensure your system can filter them out.

Additional Water Testing Services

Most water tests are performed in your home or business free of charge. Some require laboratory analysis by DEQ with varying fees, but for most households, on-site testing is enough to make accurate recommendations and provide exact pricing. As your local water experts, we not only test but also help interpret results and offer proven solutions. Whether it’s basic testing or advanced analysis, we have the knowledge and resources to address any water concern.
