Need drinking water quality testing lab?

water quality testing
tonymonton asked:


Yes, I know I can call my local water department. But, they are the ones I’m checking. I guess I’m paranoid. So, anyone know of a trusted INDEPENDENT water testing lab?

    Where do you live and what are you testing for? That is super important, as is how you collect the water and what preservation methods…

    If it is basic stuff, you can probably use a local lab for a lot cheaper price. If you are doing something like mercury, or ultra low metals, or medications, or pesticides, you’ll have to find a speciality lab and it will cost a lot ($300-500 per sample analysis).

    You’ll also need to know what numbers are acceptable and what are not…. If you water company is going to fudge something, odds are they’ll compare the number they have with the highest water quality standard that they can, which doesn’t mean healthy water… Anywho, good luck, I can provide more info if you email me through Answers…
