There are several types of water system tests and inspections that may be done, depending on your particular needs and the systems in place for the property. Below is a brief description of the process used in testing wells and water purity.
Well Testing
The water is run from an outside hose spicket through a hose and metering device which measures the number of gallons per minute.
Water Purity Testing
Consists of water samples taken to test for coliform, ecoli bacteria - referred to as a potability test; then there is a test referred to as an FHA Short test, which adds to the coliform/ecoli bacteria with lead, nitrites and nitrates; then there is a test referred to as an FHA Long test, which adds to the coliform/ecoli bacteria, lead, nitrites, nitrates with iron, manganese, iron plus manganese, sodium, pH, hardness, alkalinity and turbidity.
