Are you distressed about the quality of the water that runs from your tap? It’s very understandable considering the health concerns that may arise from contaminated water. Testing your residential water on a regular basis is an essential aspect of maintaining a safe and reliable water supply. This is why you should consider Schaefer Soft Water for your residential water testing to help you treat your water supplies accordingly.
What Tests Do We Do?
- Water Hardness Tests
You probably aware of hard water and the problems that it brings. Ranging from soap wastage when washing and bathing to clogging water heaters, and harmful effects on our digestive system when we drink it. Fortunately, at Schaefer’s Soft Water, we can quickly solve these problems by conducting a drinking water test for hardness and recommend the best water softener. Thanks to our vast collection of water softeners, your appliances will last longer, and you can save on cleaning soaps.
- Bacteria Contamination
You cannot detect bacterial contamination in water through sight, smell, or taste. The only method to know is if your water supply contains bacterial is to have it tested. Since testing for all individual pathogens is impractical and costly, we test for coliform bacteria as a standard to determine bacterial safety of the water. If our laboratory tests confirm its presence, we go ahead and offer you alternative ways to disinfect your water supply until the problem is solved.
- Lead and Copper test
Does your drinking water have a metallic or unpleasant bitter taste? This is an indication of significant levels of metal compounds in your water. Increased consumption of Lead and Copper metals is of no benefit to humans; hence, a high level of Lead and Copper in your drinking water will make the water unsafe. That’s why you should contact us to have your drinking water tested professionally.
- Additional Testing
At Schaefer Soft Water, we also conduct other tests that may be appropriate if we suspect a particular contaminant in your water. For instance, most groundwater sources are prone to arsenic, uranium, pesticides, and selenium. We test your drinking water at the tap and at the source to determine present contaminants and suggest the right water treatment to achieve water quality standards.
You can rely on Schaefer Soft Water for your residential water testing to ensure that your water source is adequately protected for potential contamination, and appropriate treatment is selected, applied, and operating correctly.
