What does the water analysis measure?
The water quality test is a quick examination that provides a comprehensive overview of your water quality by measuring a variety of parameters:
pH value: Indicates whether the water is acidic or alkaline - a balanced pH value is crucial for drinking water quality.
Hydrogen sulfide: The presence of hydrogen sulfide can negatively affect the taste and smell of water, so measuring it is important for enjoyable water consumption.
Metals in water: Metals such as cadmium, cobalt, mercury, nickel, and zinc are analyzed during the examination. Elevated levels can be harmful, so monitoring them is important to prevent health risks.
Free chlorine: Ensures that the water is sufficiently disinfected to protect against harmful microorganisms.
Bacteria: Checks for coliform bacteria, including E. coli, which indicate possible contamination and health hazards.
Chloride: Monitored to prevent pipe corrosion and potential health problems.
Nitrates and nitrites: Monitored to avoid excessive exposure, which can be harmful, especially for infants and young children.
Iron: Affects the color and taste of water and can stain laundry and porcelain.
Copper: Monitored to prevent toxicity and taste problems in water.
Sulfate: If this value is not controlled, it can lead to impaired taste and bodily functions.
Total chlorine: Measures the total chlorine content and is important for effective water disinfection.
