Why get your drinking water tested? 

Many people receive their household water, which is used for cooking and domestic uses, from private wells. If the water you drink comes from a private well you should have it tested regularly to ensure it is safe for you and your family, free from disease causing organisms and chemical substances which may post health risks as well as to identify any existing problems. 

If you have a treatment system, regular testing will determine the effectiveness of the system.
