FAQs About Water Testing
A home water test costs about $100-$400 in Phoenix, AZ. The cost of the test can vary depending on the type of test you have done. You can have your water tested for bacteria or hard water, or have your well water checked. Additionally, the price can fluctuate if you choose to purchase an at-home test, have a lab perform the test or have a utility contractor test your water for you.
Home water test kits can be fairly accurate for testing your Phoenix area home’s water. The most effective way to test your home’s water is to do an at home test that you send away to a lab for testing. Gathering a sample of your home’s water and sending it away to a lab can allow you to spot contaminants more accurately and provides you with a detailed report of any potential contaminants that you have in your water.
The following tests should be done on well water in Phoenix, AZ:
- Testing of PH level
- Testing for total coliform bacteria
- Testing for nitrates
These are the main tests that you should have done, but you should also consider having your well water tested for other contaminants if you notice particular issues with your well water.
Bacteria Testing
If you’ve noticed your household experiencing fevers and a major upset stomach like nausea and diarrhea, you may have bacterial contamination in your water. Bacteria testing will identify if you have a problem and provide guidance on how to resolve the problem once identified.
Well Water Testing
The CDC recommends testing your well’s water at least once per year to ensure your family’s continued health and safety. Additional well water tests may be necessary if your water’s taste, smell or color changes; if your well pump or septic system has malfunctioned; or if there has been a major weather event that can affect your water quality.
Hard Water Testing
Hard water is damaging to your plumbing and causes your skin, hair, clothes and dishes to look dull or even dirty, even when freshly cleaned! Hard water testing will help you know if you’re one of the 85% of Americans living in a hard water area, and what you can do to resolve the problem.
