Description
Want to do a comprehensive water test? This is the test for you!
Ideal for individuals who want to test their water from a tap, private well, spring or in remote locations. Tests for 9 harmful contaminants including Bacteria, Copper, Iron, Lead, Nitrates, Nitrites, Chlorine, pH and Hardness.
It is vital to test water from private water supplies, like wells, on boats and ships or water tanks regularly. This test is also ideal to test your tap water for 9 common contaminants.
Features & Benefits:
- Test for copper, iron and lead
- Detect dangerous levels of nitrates/nitrites
- Test for potentially harmful coliform bacteria (including E.coli)*
- Learn your water’s pH balance
- Determine the hardness of your water
- Identify unsafe levels of chlorine in your water
- Compare all your results to EPA-recommended levels
Contents:

- pH: 6, 6.5, 7.5, 8.5, 10
* The bacteria test kit detects total coliform (which is faecal bacteria for the most part) and is a presence/absence test of 1CFU per 100ml. Total Coliform bacteria include E.coli, serratia, enterobacter, ctirobacter and klebsiella.
