Purtest Home Water Test Kit

The Purtest Home Water Test Kit packs a comprehensive set of EPA-based tests into one convenient package, allowing fast, accurate in-home analysis of 12 different water-quality factors. For homeowners who want a clear, well-rounded snapshot of what is actually in their water—without waiting on an outside laboratory—this kit is an excellent and economical starting point for making informed decisions about treatment, safety, and everyday water use.

What it measures

The kit screens for bacteria, lead, nitrates, nitrites, chlorine, iron, copper, pH, total alkalinity, total hardness, iron bacteria, and hydrogen sulfide. Together these parameters cover the most common health, taste, odor, and equipment-affecting concerns found in both municipal and private well supplies, giving you a broad picture from a single package rather than requiring separate tests for each issue. A 16-page basic water-knowledge handbook is included to help you interpret your results and understand what each reading means and what to do next.

• EPA-based test methods for trustworthy, meaningful results
• Screens 12 contaminants and water-quality parameters in one kit
• Covers bacteria, lead, nitrates and nitrites, and more
• Includes pH, total hardness, and total alkalinity checks
• Tests for iron, copper, chlorine, and hydrogen sulfide
• 16-page water-knowledge handbook included

Testing is especially useful before choosing a treatment system, since knowing your hardness, iron, pH, and chlorine levels directly guides the right softener, filter, or disinfection choice for your home and helps you avoid buying equipment that does not match your actual water. It is also valuable after moving into a new house, following plumbing work, or whenever taste, odor, or staining suddenly changes, as these can signal a shift in water quality worth investigating. The combination of broad coverage and an explanatory handbook makes the results genuinely actionable rather than just numbers on a chart. Compact and straightforward to use, the Purtest Home Water Test Kit puts informed, confident water decisions directly in your own hands. With broad coverage and a helpful handbook in one package, this Purtest kit turns water testing from a chore into a clear, confident first step toward better water. Knowing your numbers up front is the surest way to choose treatment that truly fits your home.
