Gales Ferry Connecticut Water Testing

Water testing Gales Ferry Connecticut. Many privately owned wells are contaminated and fail to meet Federal and State drinking water standards for potability.

Unlike public and bottled water suppliers, which in Connecticut are regulated by the Health Department and are required to routinely test for a variety of pollutants and contaminants, if you have a private well in Gales Ferry Connecticut, it is up to you, as the homeowner to verify the safety of your drinking water.

Those of us with private wells are often unaware of the contaminants that may be present in our water and how they may affect our long and short-term health.

Most private well owners like you give water testing very little thought and, in some cases, consume water that may adversely affect your health and the health of you and your family.

It is recommended that water testing be performed every year for total coliform bacteria, nitrates, total dissolved solids, and pH levels. If you suspect other contaminants, test for those too.

A basic profile should be performed every 3 to 5 years. The Basic Potability Profile includes: coliform bacteria, e. coli bacteria, nitrates, nitrites, color, odor, pH, turbidity, chloride, hardness, sulfates, iron, manganese, sodium, and total chlorine.
