First Draw & First Flus Dual Lead Test
The Dual Lead Test will test for lead content in water that allows a “first draw” sample and a “flush” sample. This test is helpful for concerns about the amount of lead that may be found in the water from the plumbing.

Radon
Radon in Water testing will provide you with the information you need to know if the Radon in your water adds to your Radon in the air levels.
Corrosion Check
An informational testing package was developed for people experiencing signs of corrosion in their plumbing fixtures. This test analyzes contaminants that can specifically affect corrosion. This package can be used for well water and city water.
Problem Check
The Problem-Check analyzes water for the 20 most common nuisance contaminants. It was designed to help people who are experiencing problems with iron (this test package checks both total and dissolved iron and iron bacteria). Additionally, we look at other contaminants that can cause aesthetic issues such as odor, taste, or discoloration.
Tannins
Tannins are naturally occurring and can cause aesthetic problems such as discoloration, a possible tangy aftertaste, and an earthy or musty odor. The water may be yellowish and can cause staining on laundry and fixtures.
Information Glyphosate
For those who may not recognize the chemical name Glyphosate, it is the most widely used herbicide on the market today, known as Roundup™. I’m sure many of us have a bottle of this on hand to deal with those pesky weeds in our landscaping. This test would solely look for Glyphosate with a detection level of 0.1 mg/L or parts per million.
