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

Lead, read as one of three ranges: 0–4, 5–15 or 15+ ppb
Turnaround: 5 minutes
What it can't tell you: It shows a lead range, not an exact level, and tests nothing else unless you pay extra for the optional lab test.
Lab-certified results

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.
