HOW IT WORKS

From your tap to a clear answer — in five simple steps.

No lab visit, no jargon, no guesswork. Just a kit, a few minutes at your sink, and a report that actually makes sense.

1

Order your kit

Choose the panel that fits your home — from a single tap to a full whole-home comparison. Your kit ships within 1–2 business days with everything included: sample bottles, self-test strips, an intake card, and a prepaid return mailer.

2

Collect your sample

Collecting a sample takes about 10 minutes and doesn't require anything beyond your kitchen sink. No lab experience needed — just follow the instruction card that comes with your kit.

1. Run the tap for 30 seconds before collecting.
2. Dip the included test strip and record the reading on your intake card — this happens right at the tap, since a couple of readings change too fast to test once mailed.
3. Fill each sample bottle to the line and cap tightly.
4. Repeat for each tap in your kit, then seal everything in the return mailer.

Ship it back

Drop your sealed kit in any mailbox or post office. Standard panels ship on your own schedule — if your kit includes microbiology, just make sure your sample goes out Monday through Wednesday so it doesn't sit over a weekend in transit.

A few habits that keep your results accurate:
Refrigerate your sample right away if your kit includes a cold pack
Ship the same day you collect — a post office counter drop-off keeps things moving faster than a mailbox
Avoid leaving your kit sitting in a hot car before drop-off
Microbiology kits: Monday–Wednesday shipping only, every time

We test in the lab

Your sample is logged, tested against the full panel, and checked against internal quality controls before anything gets reported — the same standards used in professional environmental testing.

Get your clear report

Within about a week, you'll receive a report that translates every result into plain language — what's good, what's worth watching, and what (if anything) is worth acting on. No fear tactics, no upsell pressure. Just clarity.
