What to Do If Your Water Test Shows Contamination
Once we receive your water test results, we’ll provide a detailed report and explain our findings. If your water test reveals contaminants, don’t panic. We’ll guide you through the best solutions to restore safe water quality to your home or business.
Understanding Your Water Test Results
Our specialists will walk you through your water test report to help you understand the findings and what they mean for your health and plumbing. Elevated levels of bacteria or heavy metals may pose a serious health risk, while water hardness and pH can lead to corrosion, unpleasant tastes, and scale buildup. We’ll explain each result and recommend the best course of action to get your water quality back to where it should be.
Solutions for Improving Water Quality
If your report reveals contamination or hard water issues, there are plenty of options to restore the quality of your supply, including:
- Water filtration and purification system
- Carbon filters
- UV disinfection
- Reverse osmosis systems
- Water softeners
We’ll evaluate your report and outline the best solution based on your results.
When to Schedule Follow-Up Testing
After fixing contamination issues, it’s important to schedule a follow-up test to confirm that all levels are back to normal. We recommend testing within a few months to confirm that the treatment is working. Once the issue is resolved, regular maintenance helps prevent future problems. Annual testing, especially for well water, will help catch any new concerns or recurring issues.
