water quality test

Contamination screening procedure

A water quality test measures the chemical, biological, and physical characteristics of water to determine its safety or suitability for a particular use.

Tests check for contaminants like bacteria, lead, pH levels, and dissolved solids.

Municipal water supplies undergo regular testing, but homeowners with wells often arrange their own: We had a water quality test done before buying the house.
