Professional Water Quality Testing and Analysis
A water test is only as useful as the parameters it includes and the way the samples are collected. Olympian Water Testing agrees the parameter list with each client before the visit, so the results answer the question that prompted the test.
Olympian Water Testing provides professional water quality testing for homeowners, renters, buyers and sellers, boards, managing agents, schools and building owners throughout New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.
How Parameters Are Selected
Consultation covers the water source, the age and history of the plumbing, any changes in taste, color or odor and the reason for testing. A household seeking a baseline, a buyer completing a transaction and a building responding to a complaint need different panels.
Testing can be focused on a single concern, such as lead, or broadened to a full potability panel covering microbiological, inorganic, organic and physical parameters.
How the Sampling Event Is Conducted
Our highly trained and skilled laboratory technicians collect samples on site, in the order the analyses require and with preserved containers handled separately.
Where a test requires water to sit unused beforehand, preparation instructions are provided in advance. Chain of custody is documented from collection through analysis, and holding times are observed for every parameter.
Understanding Our Reporting
Our reporting lists every parameter tested with its analytical method, reporting limit and measured value, including parameters that were not detected.
Olympian Water Testing has conducted water quality work across the region since 1991 with NELAP accredited laboratory analysis, and enquiries are received at any hour of any day.
