Water Testing Mexico

Our comprehensive water testing kit analyzes for 25 different parameters, giving you a detailed view of your water quality. The kit includes everything you need for the following tests:

Physical & General Parameters

• Turbidity: Measures the cloudiness of your water, which can indicate the presence of suspended solids or microorganisms.
• Total Solids: Identifies all dissolved and suspended particles in your water supply.
• Dissolved Solids: Measures the concentration of dissolved substances, such as minerals and salts, which can affect taste and cause scale buildup.
• Settleable Solids: Detects solid particles that will settle to the bottom of a container, indicating potential sediment or organic matter.
• Conductivity: Gauges the water's ability to conduct electricity, which indicates the concentration of dissolved inorganic compounds.
• pH: Determines if your water is acidic or alkaline. An improper pH level can affect the taste of your water and impact the efficiency of certain purification systems.
• Phenolphthalein & Methyl: Specialized tests to measure the alkalinity of your water, indicating its capacity to neutralize acids.
• Total Alkalinity: A measure of your water's ability to resist changes in pH.

Hardness Parameters

• Calcium Hardness: Measures the amount of calcium dissolved in your water, the primary cause of hard water.
• Magnesium Hardness: Measures the amount of magnesium, which contributes to water hardness and can lead to mineral buildup.
• Total Hardness: Provides an overall measure of how "hard" your water is, caused by the combined presence of calcium and magnesium.

Chemical & Inorganic Contaminants

• Chlorides: Measures the concentration of chloride ions, which can give water a salty taste and be a sign of industrial runoff or wastewater contamination.
• Sulfates: Detects sulfate levels, which can have a laxative effect at high concentrations and may indicate industrial pollution.
• Free Chlorine: Measures the residual chlorine remaining in your water after disinfection, ensuring it's at a safe level.
• Nitrates & Nitrites: Tests for nitrogen compounds, often from agricultural fertilizers, that can pose health risks at elevated levels.
• Ammonium: Measures the presence of ammonium ions, which can be a sign of organic pollution or a failing purification system.
• Phosphates: Measures phosphate levels, which can lead to excessive algae growth and indicate runoff from fertilizers.
• Silicates: Tests for the presence of silicates, a mineral commonly found in water.

Heavy Metals

• Lead: A highly toxic heavy metal that can have serious health effects even at low levels.
• Copper: Measures copper levels, which can come from corroding plumbing and cause health issues.
• Iron: Detects the presence of iron, which can give water a metallic taste and stain fixtures.
• Aluminum: Measures aluminum levels, which can come from industrial sources or natural rock formations.

Bacteria

• Coliform: Detects coliform bacteria, a group of bacteria found in soil, water, and the intestines of animals and humans.
