Many people ask us how they can determine what sort of drinking water filtration system they ought to have installed in their home or office. We respond to each inquiry in the same manner: Find out what you have in your water first, then choose an appropriate drinking water filtration system.

In simpler terms this means we ALWAYS suggest that consumers test their water, or have it tested, before making a purchasing decision.

Consumers have two options when it comes to drinking water testing:

1) Call the Environmental Protection Agency’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 800-426-4791 for a list of state-certified drinking water testing laboratories in their area.

2) Obtain a home drinking water test kit such as the WaterSafe All-In-One drinking water test kit or the SenSafe Water Quality Test Kit from a local retailer or a reputable online vendor such as FiltersFast.Com, TestProducts.Com or FilterWater.Com.

Important Note: While at-home test kits provide reasonable piee of mind when it comes to monitoring the safety and purity of your drinking water, if you have serious reason to suspect your water may have gotten contaminated you will definitely want to have your water tested by a certified drinking  water professional.
