Water Testing for Lowell Homes
Many homes in Vergennes and Bowne Townships draw from private wells that no utility checks. Well owners should test at least once a year. We test hardness, iron and manganese, pH and sediment on site and collect a bacteria sample for a lab. City homes can test too.

How the Job Works
Step 1: Collect the sample
We take water from the right tap or well connection so the sample shows what you actually drink and use.
Step 2: Test on site
We test hardness, iron and manganese, chlorine and chloramine, pH and sediment levels.
Step 3: Send bacteria samples
For wells, we collect a sample for bacteria testing. Lab results can take a couple of days.
Step 4: Explain the results
We tell you what the numbers mean and whether a softener, a filter or nothing is the right answer.
