    0health-based violations in the last 10 years

    From EPA SDWIS. A clean violation history means no enforcement action was recorded; it does not cover contaminants without a limit.

    No result is not a pass. Your utility's annual water quality report may list them, and a certified lab test covers your own tap.

    Screening tells you if something is worth a closer look; a lab result is the number you can act on.

    • Screening: quick check, not lab-grade

      Watersafe Drinking Water Test Kit

      Silver Lake Research

      Lead, bacteria, nitrate, copper, iron, chlorine, hardness and pH

      • Turnaround: Minutes; the bacteria test can take up to 48 hours

      What it can't tell you: Each test gives a yes/no or a rough range, not a lab number, and it cannot detect PFAS or arsenic.

    • Lab-certified results

      ETR Laboratories

      50+ substances, including lead, copper, arsenic, nitrate, hardness and coliform bacteria

      What it can't tell you: It does not test PFAS, and not every result on the panel falls under the lab's accredited scope.
