| Water Test Kits such as the Culligan TK-2 are recommended to help you determine the specific contaminants in your household water supply. Water test kits can also measure the hardness of your water and the ph level of your water. Water test kits also identify contaminants such as chlorine, iron, nitrates, mercury, zinc, and lead in your drinking water. Once you have completed a water quality analysis and determined the problems with your household water, we recommend that you search Waterfilters.net for the appropriate water filter to purify your water. There are many water filters available that remove or reduce chlorine, mercury, zinc, lead, particulates, sediment, herbicides, and pesticides. Our goal is to make your water safe for you and your family. For more information about water contaminants, visit Water University. Last edited by waterfilters; December 21st, 2007 at . |

| The smaller the #, the smaller the pore size. A micron is 1/1,000,000 of a meter. So all things being equal at the high end of flow capacity a 5 micron filter will have lower flow rates than a 100 micron filter, and the 5 micron will filter out more contaminants. Flow rate shouldn't be a problem for you unless you are pushing the limits of the filters capacity. Here's another way of looking at it: If you have a 100 micron filter and are already experiencing low flow rates, then a 5 micron will make it worse. Thank you, WaterFilters.NET |

| I use two test kits: HACH and LaMOTTE: Both are excellent but I prefer the LaMOTTE as it seems more complete. I also prefer the liquid hardness reagent as opposed to the powder pillows. The hardness in my area is so high that the powder solutions go blank after a while. Also the kit box is more durable and has better locks on the LaMOTTE. Andy Christensen, CWS-II |

| Home test kits are usually effective at giving good "within the ballpark" results, and sometimes better than that, however, if you want laboratory quality test results, you could use a test kit like this: WaterCheck Pesticides Water Lab Test With this kit, you simply collect the water, and pack it in the provide styrofoam and ice pack, and overnight it to the laboratory (address provided). They will give you highly accurate results for over 80 contaminants. If the results from a self administered test indicated levels that were in violation of EPA standards, then you might consider a more accurate laboratory test. |
