Water Testing
Well Water Analysis


Information

We sample drinking water using sterile containers. The sample is analyzed by a
State certified laboratory.


Test Parameters fee:
FHA Water Test for coliform bacteria, nitrate, nitrite, and lead: $175.00 *
Fecal coliform only:  $125.00 *


The FHA test covers:- e-coli, total coliform, nitrates, nitrites, total nitrates-nitrites, Ph,
iron, lead and turbidity.  Additional tests and/or expediting tests costs more. Allow a
week for results to come back.

Additional testing (e.g. copper, chlorine, arsenic) can be arranged with advance
notice. Call for additional quote.

Advice

Bacteria: Bacterial contamination in water causes severe digestive problems, fever,
nausea, diarrhea and sometimes, even death. One of hundreds of strains of the
bacterium Eschericha coli (E. coli 0157:H7) is an emerging cause of food borne and
water borne illness. This strain produces a power-ful toxin and can cause severe
illness. A recent Bulletin from Ohio State University states that bacteria in drinking
water, e.g. coliform, causes human illnesses such as typhoid, dysentery, cholera,
and hepatitis.

Pesticides: Pesticide ingestion and inhalation can damage internal organs, cause
cancer, and eventually death. The World Heath Organization estimates that one-half
of the ground and well water in the U. S. is contaminated with pesticides, resulting in
20,000 deaths per year.

Wells: If I myself were buying a house using well-water, I would insist upon chemical
and bacterialogical, as well as radon, testing. Water can pick-up radon deep within
the earth and bring it up to your house. Although radon may not be present within
the living area of the house (tested by an air-test) because of a well vented
crawl-space, it may well be released into the middle of the house when pressure is
reduced (i.e when water exits a shower-head or faucet).

I offer a special package: water (chemical and bacteria) and radon-in-water testing,
done at the same time as the inspection, for $ 300 (saving you $55).

Water testing is always recommended when you have a private well and, unless
community well water has been tested recently and the results are on hand, it is
prudent to analyze such water too.
