City Water Test

Crystal Quest City Water Test Kits Crystal Quest has partnered with National Testing Laboratories, a trusted leader in water analysis, to provide reliable city water testing for homes and buildings. Each kit screens for a broad range of contaminants. Checking up to 20 heavy metals, 7 inorganic chemicals, 4 physical factors, and more—to give you a clear picture of your water quality. Testing is simple and convenient: just collect your sample and return it for analysis. Why Test Your Water? City water is regulated and treated, but contaminants can still enter your supply through distribution systems, plumbing, or aging infrastructure. Testing helps identify issues that may go unnoticed, such as: Lead – Can leach from old pipes and cause developmental and neurological problems. Inorganic Chemicals (Nitrate, Fluoride, Chloride, etc.) – Excessive levels may cause health issues, especially for infants and those with health conditions. Copper– From household plumbing, linked to stomach distress and liver or kidney damage. Volatile Organic Compounds (Benzene, Vinyl Chloride, TCE, PCE, etc.) – Industrial solvents and chemicals linked to cancer and organ damage Routine testing gives you peace of mind and ensures your water is as safe as it should be. Our kits include simple, step-by-step instructions for easy use at home. Get Results in 3 Easy Steps 1. Collect Sample Fill kit’s bottles with water & complete enclosed form. 2. Return Sample Return kit using guaranteed next-day delivery. 3. Receive Report Receive clear results using EPA standards. ### Compare the kits below.
