Basic package
The results of the tests will allow the water to be assessed for possible coliforms, coliforms, faecal enterococci, microorganisms and basic elements such as manganese and iron, which in excessive quantities are also harmful to the human body and can be harmful to household appliances.
In addition, we verify the pH, electrolytic conductivity and organoleptic parameters such as taste and smell of the water.
The basic package contains the bare minimum of what you should know about your own water.
We carry out microbiological, physicochemical, organoleptic and legionella water tests, which are recognised by the sanitary inspectorate and in accordance with the Decree of the Minister of Health of 7 December 2017, Journal of Laws of 2017, item 2294, on the quality of water intended for human consumption.
Why is it worth testing water?
Water has a very big impact on our health and well-being. Each of us comes into contact with water on a daily basis, which leaves us exposed to all sorts of pathogenic bacteria and parasites in it. For this reason, it is worth checking the quality of water at least once a year.
Surveys conducted in Poland show that water in 8/10 wells has bacteriological or physicochemical excesses. Microbiological tests also clearly prove that water becomes harmful to health when harmful chemical compounds, e.g. nitrates, nitrites, appear in its composition or when certain elements are present in too high concentrations (iron, manganese). Water should be tested mainly for the sake of our health, but also for the household appliances we use to ensure that they are in the right condition.
Water from public water supply systems supplied to our houses and flats is systematically tested, but there are times when the quality of the water in our tap worries us. The water may appear cloudy, have an unpleasant smell or colour. This could be caused, for example, by contamination from the building's internal installation or a pipeline failure. In such cases, it is a good idea to contact our laboratory, which will help to solve the water quality problem.
After the analyses have been carried out, our specialists will help interpret the results.
Please note SGS Poland laboratory does not deal with the assembly and installation of filters, our results will be necessary for external companies that provide such services.
