Water Quality test

Assess your water quality with ease using GetTested's Water Quality Test, evaluating 14 key parameters to ensure every sip is pure and safe. From essential minerals to potential contaminants, this test provides a clear picture of your water's health in just minutes.

The water quality test is a rapid assessment that delivers a comprehensive view of your water quality by measuring a variety of parameters:

• pH Level: Indicates whether your water is acidic or alkaline, with a balanced pH being crucial for safe drinking water.
• Hydrogen Sulphide: Its presence can negatively impact the taste and smell of water, making its measurement important for a pleasant water experience.
• Water Metals: The test includes the analysis of metals such as cadmium, cobalt, mercury, nickel, and zinc. High levels can be harmful, making it important to monitor them to avoid health risks.
• Free Chlorine: Ensures that water is adequately disinfected, maintaining its safety from harmful microorganisms.
• Bacteria: Looks for coliform bacteria, including E. coli, indicating possible contamination and potential health risks.
• Chloride: Monitored to prevent pipe corrosion and potential health issues.
• Nitrates and Nitrites: Assessed to prevent overexposure, which can be particularly harmful to infants and young children.
• Iron: Affects the colour and taste of water and can stain laundry and porcelain.
• Copper: Monitored to avoid toxicity and taste issues in water.
• Sulphate: High levels can affect the taste of water and can impact bodily functions if unchecked.
• Total Chlorine: Measures the overall chlorine levels, important for ensuring effective water disinfection.

To ensure the quality and purity of your water, regular testing is crucial whether you’re on a mains water supply or a well. Proactively testing helps detect any issues early and enables prompt action. This not only safeguards your health but also the longevity of your plumbing and household appliances, reducing risks and extending their lifespan.
