Well Water Testing

Well Water Testing

Know your water source! Having your well water tested can provide peace of mind in knowing what is (or isn't) in your water. Common pollutants in well water include:

• Bacteria & Nitrates from human and animal wastes
• Fertilizers & Pesticides
• Industrial Products & Wastes
• Heavy Metals

Did you know that young children are the most likely to become ill from contaminated water? Protect your family's health by getting your well tested every year.
