Drinking Water Test: Level 2

Baseline drinking water quality testing for one (1) sample in a home, building, or facility served by a municipal water utility supply. Analyzes for common drinking water health concerns related to plumbing, as well as volatile organic compounds related to chlorine disinfection processes. This RKIN test package in collaboration with SimpleLab provides all required materials to properly collect and submit a water sample for certified laboratory testing. Report analysis includes: Health-risk assessment, potential plumbing and aesthetic issues (taste, odor, appearance), and comparison to any regulatory limits and/or public health guidelines.

How it works This mail-in laboratory testing package includes: sampling vial(s) sampling instructions prepaid return shipping label sample information card/chain of custody document shipping container Once the lab receives the sample, your personalized SimpleLab Report will arrive by email within 5 business days. Each testing package is intended for one sample from a single location unless otherwise specified. Informational testing By default, this broad-based chemical and biological water quality screening package is designed to provide you with general information about your water for personal use. Each report includes analysis for specific numerical concentration levels of each contaminant and details about the potential sources and health effects associated with each parameter. We are not medical doctors and SimpleLab does not provide medical advice. For medical concerns always consult your doctor. As an informational water quality test, this package is not meant for state or federal compliance water testing. If you or your organization requires compliance with State or Federal Law, or compliance with a particular regulatory requirement then you must contact the SimpleLab support team and we will use the appropriate certified laboratory facilities to ensure your compliance testing requirements are met.
