Do
you know what’s in your water? Eliminate the guesswork and find true peace of
mind by learning what’s in the water you and your family drink and doing
something about it. At Haferman Water Conditioning, we make it as easy as
possible for you to know for sure.
Whether
you rely on your city’s treated water or well water, it is a good idea to have
your water tested. And, this way you know whether or not you need to install a
water filtration system or water softener to improve the quality of your water water.
And, though there are at-home tests, it is important to have water testing done
by professionals. As experts in the industry, we have the right tools and knowledge to accurately test your
water for a variety of impurities and chemicals. The importance of water testing at
your Prior Lake
home should not be overlooked: routine water testing can help improve the taste
and quality of your water and keep you and your family safe. We’ve provided a
rundown of the reasons to choose water testing for your home.
Is it safe?
The
most basic reason for water testing is to make sure your home’s water is safe
for consumption. This is most important for households that use wells, but it
can also be helpful to find out the quality of your municipal sourced water. And,
if you live in an area with a great deal of agriculture, you will want to make
sure you get your water tested because nitrates and pesticides can easily get
into the soil and contaminate nearby wells.
Your water should
be tested if:
- You notice a change in your water quality, like in smell or taste.
- You notice scaling or spots on your glassware.
- There is a pregnant woman or an infant under the age of six months living in your home.
- Your drinking water comes out of the tap with a cloudy appearance.
- Your area experiences a large flood or storm that might have affected the water quality.
- You recently had some type of maintenance or repair work done on your well.
Hard
water problems?
Water testing can also help determine if your
home has a hard water problem. While hard water is not unsafe for you and your
loved ones to drink, it can decrease the life span of your water using
appliances and make it more difficult for you to keep your bathroom and kitchen
clean.
How often should
you have your water tested?
There
are no laws or regulations that dictate how often you should have water testing
performed. As mentioned, there are a few indications that you should have this
done, so it is up to you to determine when you should have your water tested
and how frequently you should have it done.
