Types of Water Tests
Hardness Testing
Hardness can cause too much soap or detergent usage and also scaling. Hardness is caused primarily by calcium and magnesium.
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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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.
What Our Customers Are Saying:
Our water has no taste or smell, my hair is cleaner and brighter, cleaning my quartz counter tops and mirrors is just so easy now! Totally recommend it to everyone out there.
Extremely knowledgeable and very courteous while in my home, can’t beat the amazing water, not the chemical/hormone/drug-ridden tap water the private water companies gives you. Protect your health, it starts with clean water hydrating and detoxing your amazing body!
In just a few short days, I have noticed a HUGE difference in having clean water. My kitchen sink and dishes no longer has hard spots after a nights use. My laundry smells cleaner than ever before, and as a woman who struggles with adult acne, I’m ALREADY noticing a change in my skin.
They have the most efficient products to clean the water with a lifetime warranty that no one else offers. Professional service, and most importantly the education and awareness about what was in the water was also included I really enjoyed it.
We love having clean water, we could taste, feel and see the difference right away. The water is so hard my skin was very dry, I can see and feel a huge difference. I really like how clean everything is, I like that just clean water cleans my stainless steel appliances. The process was super easy and enjoyable.
Great life-changing technology. I don’t like drinking any other water. The clothes system has renewed all my clothes, the water in the showers is amazing. We have cleaner everything thanks to this system. My wife’s rosacea is clearing up and I don’t have to use greasy lotion anymore. Love it and share it with all my friends and family.
I am so happy to have it back in my life, having clean water has made my skin issues go away and it’s great to shower in! Thank you guys for being amazing and having such a great team! You have been amazing to work with!
From the education specialist to the installation team to the follow-up check we have had nothing but GREAT customer service. I feel confident that if I have any issues they will be more than happy to assist. I love doing business locally and they are right down the street. My water tastes wonderful and I am no longer ingesting toxic chemicals. It feels wonderful to know my skin, our biggest organ is no longer absorbing the toxins in our water.
The process from first call to install was so seamless. I have never met a team of players so passionate about water. From their tech to the install team they were genuinely excited we are about to enjoy clean water. The system itself works great and I am surprised how different the water now tastes. Crisp like a glacier melting under the counter.
Paying attention to my concerns and needs around my water is very important to me. This attention gives me confidence that I am dealing with competent people and the business they are running. Thank you ALL
