Why Test Non-Potable Water?
Non-potable water sources can carry a variety of potential contaminants—ranging from suspended solids and heavy metals to nutrients, pathogens, and organic compounds. Left unchecked, these contaminants can disrupt local ecology, pose a risk to human health, and lead to infrastructure damage or regulatory non-compliance. By conducting accurate and timely testing, you gain the insights needed to manage water resources responsibly, minimize environmental impact, and maintain compliance with local, state, and federal guidelines.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is considered non-potable water?
Non-potable water includes any water not suitable for human consumption. Examples include treated wastewater, stormwater runoff, irrigation water, groundwater influenced by industrial activities, and various process waters used in manufacturing and other industrial operations.
How often should non-potable water be tested?
Testing frequency depends on local regulations, permit requirements, and the specific goals of your water management plan. Many facilities conduct routine testing quarterly or annually, while others may require more frequent sampling during critical operations or following environmental events, such as heavy rainfall.
Which contaminants are typically analyzed in non-potable water testing?
Common contaminants include metals (like lead and copper), nutrients (such as nitrates and phosphates), organic compounds (VOCs, SVOCs, and PAHs), pathogens, suspended solids, and various chemical additives. Our laboratory tailors the testing panel to your specific source and regulatory requirements.
How do I know if my results comply with regulatory standards?
Our team keeps abreast of current environmental regulations at local, state, and federal levels. We provide test results along with a clear interpretation, indicating whether your data meets the applicable standards and guidelines. If results show exceedances, we can advise on potential corrective actions or treatment strategies.
Can you help interpret the test results and recommend next steps?
Absolutely. In addition to providing accurate analytical data, our experts offer consultations to help you understand your results. We can recommend best practices for managing your water sources, improving treatment methods, and ensuring ongoing compliance with environmental regulations.
