If your water source is provided by a municipality, your water is regularly tested and monitored, and it must meet the EPA standards for primary water contaminants or they must notify you that your water exceeds a certain constituent.
If your water source is a private well for a private home, there are no present EPA regulations protecting you from high levels of contaminants such as arsenic, nitrates, and fluoride. You may also have concerns about hardness, odor, iron, manganese, and sediment. The rural areas of Northern Nevada like Red Rock, Palomino Valley, Fernley, Fallon, the Virginia City Highlands, Washoe Valley, and Carson Valley are notorious for high levels of calcium, iron, and arsenic.
At Truckee Meadows Water Systems, we offer free water testing. We will test your water at no charge for iron, total dissolved solids, pH, hardness, flow rates, and pressure.
In most cases, we can usually recommend a water conditioning system based on those tests that will effectively treat your water. In other instances and in order to determine the proper treatment system for reduction/removal of your impurities, we may recommend a complete water analysis from a state-certified laboratory. Certified labs usually charge between $100.00 and $300.00 for a routine domestic water analysis. If such an analysis is recommended, we can help facilitate the process for you.
