A Comprehensive Water Test: a detailed parameter list for contaminants in drinking water from wells
WaterAPedia ^©

Comprehensive water testing covering the groups listed below may be appropriate when purchasing a new property, when local environmental conditions are unknown but suspect, or when building occupants have unusual health vulnerability or compromised immune systems.

This page lists the specific parameters of comprehensive water testing that one would consider when attempting to perform comprehensive water testing for a broad range of contaminants. I advise also that you speak with the local health department and neighbors to ask if there are any known specific issues or contaminants nearby, as I have by this means discovered very unusual local water contaminants which otherwise no one would have thought to test.

Readers of this page should be sure to also review Water Testing: Comprehensive Water Testing - General Classes of Water Contaminants - for Thorough Water Testing. Be sure to review actual parameters with your home inspector or laboratory: parameters and costs vary. More in-depth, un-biased, expert information on these topics and on building defect inspection, diagnosis, & repair can be found at "More Information" below. © 2008 Daniel Friedman, All Rights Reserved
