Unregulated contaminants, where PFAS results appear.

What the free in-home test covers

See what happens during a home water assessment.

When to use a certified lab

Private drinking well: bacteria and nitrate at least yearly, per the Florida Department of Health.
Lead: if you have concerns about plumbing.
PFAS: certified labs using EPA methods only.

Details: home screening vs. lab analysis.

Good times to test

Before buying any equipment.
After buying a home, especially one on a well.
Outside NSID's July chlorination period, if you want a typical chloramine reading.
After flooding near a wellhead.

Bring notes on anything you have noticed: smells, spots, stains, changes during July, and the provider name on your bill. If you have older test results from a previous owner or a well driller, bring those too; they show how the water has changed over time.
