Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I test my water?

If you live on a private or community well, the general guideline is to test your water once a year. However, we recommend testing your water every six months if you live near an industrial or manufacturing plant or if your water has previously contained high contaminant levels.

When should I test my water right away?

If you notice a change in taste, smell, color, or consistency, order a water test kit. Stop drinking your water and await results if you experience nearby flooding, a tornado, hurricane, or earthquake, or if you read reports of nearby runoff, spills, or leaks. In certain situations, you should refrain from drinking your water without boiling it first. If you are using city water supply, your city may issue a boil-water advisory. However, if your water comes from a private well, you are in control of how frequently and why you should test your water.
