Drinking Water Testing
AQUALIS facilitates water quality analysis and testing services to commercial and retail properties, as well as restaurant establishments with ground water systems. Currently servicing over 600 sites, AQUALIS offers testing to meet a variety of federal, state and local bacteriological compliance standards as well as site-specific requirements. From sampling to solutions, AQUALIS’ comprehensive and responsive drinking water compliance team offers complete system documentation to ensure total compliance and root-cause analysis.
Drinking Water Compliance
Any source designated as a public water system is liable for drinking water quality testing, with each location being responsible for the quality of water at their site. To ensure the safety of private groundwater systems, establishments must obtain routine Certificates of Potability or monthly/quarterly reports from the state or local Department of Environmental Health.
Working with regional state-certified labs, AQUALIS’ water quality services offer monthly, quarterly or annual testing to meet local regulations. AQUALIS has test capabilities for chemical and microbial contaminants including:
- Total Coliform
- E. coli
- Nitrate/Nitrite
- Iron
- Manganese
- Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC)
- Turbidity
AQUALIS water quality assessments
To ensure accurate testing, AQUALIS follows a stringent pre-testing protocol to ensure proper reporting of concentrations and relevant Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) or Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level (MRDLs), offering testing services including:
- Proactive testing: Recommended after heavy rain or flooding events, particularly if there is on-site septic as moving groundwater increases the likelihood of contamination
- Routine Testing: AQUALIS is dedicated to efficient and accurate water quality testing to meet all regulatory requirements
- Investigative report: Investigative sampling taken within 24/hours of a positive test to verify a true positive
- Investigative Testing: Confirm treatment has corrected concerns by re-testing the site one month after the initial positive
- Continued testing as required by the Department of Environmental Health
