Silica Water Test

Recommended for targeted testing of silica in drinking water. Commonly detected in new wells, silica enters groundwater supplies from natural weathering of silicate minerals of soil. While silica causes no harmful human health effects, large amounts of silica in water can cause scaling in pipes, impact water flow, infrastructure, and may interfere with iron and manganese water treatment and removal. This Tap Score water test package provides all required materials to properly collect and submit a sample for certified laboratory testing. Reported results will include detailed, quantified analysis of of silica content.
