What should I test my water for?
Dozens of tests can be performed on drinking water, and no one analysis can assure that your water is “safe to drink.”
However, Bacteria and nitrate are typically the most common groundwater contaminants of concern.
To assess bacteriological safety, water is tested for coliform bacteria—microorganisms naturally found in the intestines of humans and animals, as well as in soil. While coliforms themselves typically don’t cause illness, their presence in drinking water signals a potential pathway for more harmful pathogens. Seasonal shifts, especially between wet and dry periods, can cause bacterial levels to fluctuate, making regular monitoring essential for assessing the health of your water.
Common Parameters and Recommended Frequency for Well Owners
- Total Coliform BacteriaTwice per year: Wet season & Dry season
- Nitrate Annually
- Electrical Conductivity (EC)Annually
- MINERALS (Aluminum, Arsenic, Barium, Cadmium, Chromium-total, Fluoride, Iron, Lead, Manganese, Mercury, Selenium, Silver) Every 5–10 years, or if EC changes significantly, or if taste, color, odor, or surrounding land use change.
