Testing the Water



If you have water at your home that is provided by the city or county where you live, then you might find that the water will be tested on occasion in order to determine if there are any chemicals in the water. This quality control testing is often done by sending small bottles to your home so that you can put a sample of water in the bottle. You will then send the sample back to the company so that it can be tested. If the water has chemicals in it, then the company will alert you so that the water can be treated.

One of the reasons that water needs to be tested is if there has been any kind of spill in the area. The materials can seep into the ground and get into the water supply. Some counties and cities will test the water after flooding rains to see if there has been any kind of chemicals washed into the water supply from a lake or river. It's best to stay informed about your water supply so that you can stay as healthy as possible, especially if you drink a lot of water on a daily basis or use the water to mix with formula for a baby. Learn more by looking at the city or county website or a company online.
