Well Water Test

Crystal Quest Well Water Test Kits Crystal Quest has partnered with National Testing Laboratories, a trusted leader in water analysis, to provide reliable well water testing for private wells in homes and buildings. Each kit screens for a broad range of contaminants—including 22 heavy metals, 7 inorganic chemicals, 5 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 Well Water? Unlike city water, private wells are not regulated—making water safety the homeowner’s responsibility. Regular testing helps catch contaminants early, such as coliform bacteria, nitrates, and parasites, which can cause serious health issues: Cancer – Linked to high nitrate levels. Hepatitis A – Causes fever, fatigue, nausea, and jaundice. Giardiasis .– Leads to diarrhea, cramps, and weight loss Legionnaires’ Disease – Severe lung infection from inhaling contaminated water droplets. 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. 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.

Please Read Before Starting Step 1 After the blue ice pack has been in your freezer for at least 8 hours, you can collect your water sample from an appropriate water faucet or spigot. If the spout has a strainer or aerator, remove it prior to sampling Step 2 Samples must be shipped the same day they are collected via guaranteed next day delivery and must be collected after 1:00 p.m. EST to minimize time in transit. Do not collect and/ or ship your samples on a Friday, Saturday, Sunday, or the day before a National Holiday. Fill all of the bottles, in order from 1 to 5 as shown in the picture to the right. Bottle 1 - Fill the 500 mL plastic bottle to the shoulder and replace the cap securely. Bottle 2 - Fill the 125 mL square glass bottle to the shoulder and replace the cap securely. Bottles 3 & 4 - Fill each of the two 40 mL glass vials in such a way that a "dome" of water stands above the rim [see picture]. This can be done easily if you reduce the water flow to a slow stream. Replace the cap securely, but do not over tighten. Tip the vial upside down and check for air bubbles. If you see an air bubble, remove the cap and slowly add more water to displace the air bubble. Recap the vial and check again for air bubbles. Repeat this step until you do not see any air bubbles. Bottle 5 - Before filling this bottle, disinfect the end and inside of the faucet spout using rubbing alcohol. After the faucet spout has been disinfected, flush it by running the water for at least one minute. Remove the red tabbed plastic seal on the 125 mL plastic bottle. Do not touch the inside of the bottle or the inside of the cap. This bottle contains preservative. Do not rinse the preservative out of the bottle. Fill the bottle between the 100 mL and 120 mL fill lines. Do not fill any less or more as this will impact the analysis. [ see picture]. Replace the cap securely making sure not to touch the inside of the bottle or the inside of the cap. Step 3A Complete the enclosed lab form, making sure to indicate the collection date and time you sampled, type of water, and sample identification (e.g. kitchen sink, well head,etc.) Return the blue ice pack to the kit and place the kit back in the cardboard box with the completed lab form. Step 3B Make arrangements to ship the kit by guaranteed next day delivery [or drop the kit off at our laboratory within 24 hours of collection, Monday to Friday, 8:30 am to 5:00 pm] to the following address: National Testing Laboratories 556 South Mansfield Street Ypsilanti, MI 48197 If we do not receive your sample within 24 hours of sample collection or if you have not provided the date and time of collection, the bacteria results will be marked INVALID!
