FAQs About Water Testing & Treatment
What are 8 things measured in water testing?
During our free water testing for Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Virginia residents, we measure:
- PH Level: This measures the acidity or alkalinity of water. The pH of drinking water typically ranges between 6-8.5.
- Total Dissolved Solids (TDS): This measures the concentration of dissolved substances in water, which may consist of salts, minerals, and metals.
- Turbidity: This measures the clarity of water. Turbidity can be caused by particles, sediment, or microorganisms suspended in water.
- Copper Levels: This tests for copper in your water, which can cause blue-green stains on fixtures and give water a metallic taste. High levels may indicate corrosive water.
- Hard Minerals: This measures the concentration of calcium and magnesium (dissolved rock) in your water.
- Chlorine Levels: This checks for chlorine, which can affect the water taste and smell. While chlorine is commonly used for disinfection, excessive amounts can make water unpleasant to drink.
- Iron Levels: This measures the iron content in your water.
- Nitrates: This tests for nitrogen-oxygen compounds that can enter water through fertilizer runoff, animal waste, landfills, or septic systems. High nitrate levels can be particularly harmful to infants and pregnant women.
Carroll Water also offers a full range of paid water analyses by local certified laboratories. With these tests, we can check for things like coliform bacteria, heavy metals such as lead and mercury, and more.
Do I need to test my water when it comes from a public water company (PWC)?
PWCs are required to provide annual water test results on EPA or state-regulated particles, contaminants, and disinfectants used to clean their water. However, this type of testing doesn’t always test for the problems that you’re concerned about.
A free water test from Carroll Water can pinpoint specific issues in your water supply.
How fast can I solve my water issues?
At Carroll Water, we test water samples right in your home or business. Results are immediate, so your water consultant can design a plan of action during your appointment. We will provide expert advice on all Maryland, Virginia, and Pennsylvania water treatment options.
What are the most common contaminants found with a free water test?
Generally, in Maryland, Virginia, and Pennsylvania, the most common water quality issues we come across include:
- High levels of chlorine
- High levels of TDS
- Ferrous or ferric iron
- Acidic pH (often accompanies high copper levels, because acidic water can corrode pipes and leach copper into the water)
- Nitrates
- Hard water
Am I obligated to pay for the test if I don’t purchase water products?
You will not be charged for the onsite test even if you choose a different water partner. There may be fees for specialized tests that require lab equipment.
