Suburban Water Testing Laboratories, Inc. has been providing
analysis of drinking water to individuals and homeowners since 1963.
Our methods are those approved by the United States Environmental Protection Agency.
(EPA) Outstanding service and quality have made us a nationally recognized
laboratory. We have been listed as a testing resource by many periodicals such
as Reader's Digest, Consumer Reports, Popular Science, and many, many more.
Here is why so many people have put their trust in us: Accurate
Results Our Quality Assurance Program is very
intense, and we adhere to very strict procedures in every aspect of our analysis.
Our goal is to make sure we're precise and complete in every test, every time!
We employ calibration curves, spikes, duplicates, internal audits, blind
performance testing and other internal Quality Control. All of our analyses are
traceable to the National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST).
In simple language this means... We Maintain a high criteria for ongoing
calibration of our equipment. We run duplicate tests from different
specimens of the same sample. We run quality checks on specimens with
added, measured contaminants to make sure that the results come out to match what
we know we've put in. And we continue to find ways to do more.
Additionally, we report our findings to the customer in a way that is both
relevant and easy-to-understand. Reliability
Our EPA approved methods require laboratory
equipment such as Gas Chromatographs, Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometers, Ion
Chromatographs, High Pressure Liquid Chromatographs, and more in order to perform
analysis of a wide range of contaminants. Well trained laboratory
technicians perform the analyses and verify the results. In-home testing
cannot begin to provide results with a comparable level of accuracy and reliability.
Technical Assistance without Conflict
of Interest. Suburban Water Testing Labs, Inc.
is ONLY in the business of testing drinking water. We don't sell water
treatment equipment, so we have nothing to gain by reporting problems in
your water. If your report indicates a water quality problem, our experienced
Technical Assistance personnel are available to provide practical recommendations
for correcting any areas of concern. We don't suggest "brand names."
We simply give you the information you need to confidently shop around for the
best deals in water treatment equipment. If a "home remedy" will handle
the problem, we explain that as well. Safety
While certain in-home test procedures exist, water testing
is best done in a laboratory. Microbiology requires culturing of microorganisms.
Other tests require the use of harsh chemicals. This can be dangerous.
We have the proper facility, expertise, and equipment to perform these analyses
in a safe manner. Why attempt to perform them at home? |
