What Test Kit is Right for You?
At Radiant Environmental Labs, we believe in empowering individuals and organizations with accurate, reliable, and comprehensive water testing solutions. Whether you’re testing drinking water, ground and surface water, or wastewater, selecting the right home water test kit is essential. Our guide will help you determine the best fit for your unique requirements.
Step One: Select Your Water Drinking Source
Understanding your water source and the specific contaminants you’re concerned about is the first step. Here are a few examples:
City Water is typically treated and regulated but can still contain contaminants. Testing ensures your tap water meets safety standards and identifies any potential risks.
Well Water is untreated and directly sourced from the ground. It can be affected by local geology, agricultural runoff, or septic systems, making it important to test.
Rain Water can be influenced by roof materials, airborne pollutants, and storage tanks. Testing for contaminants ensures safe usage for drinking or irrigation.
Waste Water requires specialized testing to monitor treatment efficiency, identify contaminants, and meet regulatory standards.
Step Two: Determine the Contaminants You Want to Test For
Worried about PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) in your water? Our home water test kits are specifically designed to detect these “forever chemicals,” which can build up in the body over time and pose significant health risks. Let our team guide you in identifying the most critical contaminants to match your testing needs.
Step Three: Pick Your PFAS Test.
Residential Testing
For homeowners, ensuring safe and clean water for your family is a top priority. Residential testing kits are ideal for ensuring your drinking water is free from harmful substances like PFAS.
Manufacturer and Compliance Testing
