Testing is simple and convenient: just collect your sample and return it for analysis. What is Uranium and why it might be a concern? Uranium is a naturally occurring metal found in certain rocks and soils. As groundwater flows through these materials, uranium can dissolve and enter private wells or other underground water supplies. Because it is colorless, tasteless, and odorless in water, it cannot be detected without testing. Why it matters: Drinking water with elevated levels of uranium may increase the risk of kidney damage over time. Unlike many other metals, uranium primarily affects kidney function rather than building up in the bones or soft tissues. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has set a Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) of 30 micrograms per liter (µg/L) for uranium in public drinking water systems to help protect health. Testing ensures your water is safe before problems arise. Our kits include simple, step-by-step instructions for easy use at home. Get Results in 3 Easy Steps 1.
