WATER TESTING AND TREATMENT

 

Water Quality Testing Services

​

We offer water quality testing to help determine the appropriate treatment and filtration solutions for your needs.

​

What Our Test Includes:

​

✅ pH Levels – Measure acidity or alkalinity.

✅ Alkalinity- Capacity to resist changes in PH
✅ Water Hardness – Identify mineral content affecting plumbing and appliances.
✅ Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) – Assess overall water purity.
✅ Iron Levels – Detect potential staining or taste issues.
✅ Dirt & Sediment – Evaluate clarity and filtration needs.

✅ Arsenic- Determine arsenic levels *additional charge*

​

 Need comprehensive or health-related testing? We recommend reaching out to Mat-Su Test Labs or Alaska Water Laboratories. Our team is happy to assist in interpreting test results and advising on the best water treatment solutions.

Best Sample Collection Practices

​

 Standard Collection Guidelines:

 

• Basic testing: Collect 8 oz of water.

• Arsenic testing: Collect 10 oz of water.

• Run the water for 2–4 minutes before collecting a sample.​

• Use a clean water bottle or Ziploc bag—avoid juice or cleaning product bottles.

• Sample collection bottles are available in-store if needed.

 

 If a treatment system is already installed:

 

• Collect a sample before and after treatment for comparison.

• Common collection sites:

  • Pre-treatment: At the pressure tank or outside hose bib.

  • Post-treatment: At the kitchen sink.

​

 When to Retest Your Water
•     Once a year – a simple annual check keeps you confident.
•     After big weather events – flooding, heavy rain, or drought can change water quality.
•     After plumbing or well work – repairs can introduce new contaminants.
•     If something seems “off” – changes in taste, smell, or color are a signal to test again.

Water changes with time—retesting helps keep every glass safe and refreshing.
