FAQs
Why should homeowners in Crab Orchard schedule an in-home water analysis?
Groundwater and municipal sources in the Crab Orchard area can pick up minerals, iron, sulfur, agricultural runoff, and even trace industrial contaminants as they travel through the local limestone bedrock. An in-home analysis pinpoints exactly what is in your tap, allowing us to recommend the most effective filtration or conditioning solution rather than a one-size-fits-all system.
What contaminants can your test detect?
Our multi-point test kit screens for hardness (calcium and magnesium), iron, manganese, hydrogen sulfide (rotten-egg odor), chlorine, pH imbalance, total dissolved solids, nitrates/nitrites, and bacteria such as coliform. If you need lead, arsenic, or VOC testing for a real-estate transaction, we can collect additional state-certified lab samples during the same visit.
How does the in-home testing process work?
A licensed plumbing technician arrives at your Crab Orchard home, takes water samples from the kitchen tap and, if applicable, the well pressure tank. On-site digital meters provide immediate readings for hardness, TDS, and iron. We also perform a visual/odor inspection and discuss any staining or taste issues you have noticed. The appointment typically lasts 45–60 minutes, and you receive a printed report before we leave.
Will the analysis tell me which purification system I need?
Yes. After reviewing the test results, we match your water quality issues, household size, and plumbing layout with the most efficient treatment option—whether that is a whole-home softener, reverse-osmosis drinking station, iron filter, UV disinfection unit, or a combination system. We provide a written estimate, performance guarantees, and operating cost projections so you can make an informed decision.
Are your water tests certified for mortgages or health department requirements?
For everyday residential insight, our on-site test is sufficient. When state certification is required—such as for FHA/VA loans, day-care licensing, or boil-water advisory clearance—we collect lab samples in chain-of-custody bottles and deliver them to a Tennessee Department of Environment & Conservation (TDEC) certified laboratory. Results are returned within 3–5 business days and include all paperwork lenders or officials need.
How much does the in-home analysis cost, and are there hidden fees?
Standard residential testing within 25 miles of Crab Orchard is $79, which is credited toward any purification system you purchase within 90 days. Certified lab work or travel beyond the service radius is quoted up-front, so you will never see surprise charges on your invoice.
