Basic Lab Testing Services

  - Water samples should be collected from the kitchen faucet or from the faucet used most often for drinking. Fill the bottle with the first-pull of water, as if you were filling a drinking glass. This technique helps assure the analysis represents the quality of the water being consumed. It is preferred that the sample be placed in a plastic container, a water bottle will do, no containers with a metal top. Metal would contaminate your sample.
