EnviroTestKits Safe Home Drinking Water Test Kit

EnviroTestKits Safe Home® Drinking Water Test Kit Provides Peace of Mind

The EnviroTestKits Safe Home® Drinking Water Test Kit provides peace of mind while giving us insight into our drinking water quality and will help to determine which filtration system will be best in our new home. I was excited to be able to test the water at our new house because honestly, the water didn’t taste good at all. I knew I would install some type of filtration system because I could tell it had a different odor and a strong chlorine taste, compared to the water in our previous town. This is where EnviroTestKits, a division of Environmental Laboratories, Inc., comes in.

Is Your Water Safe?


In this country, most of us have the privilege of having clean, safe water on a daily basis. Although this is the case, most folks I know have some sort of drinking water filtration system in their home. Straight from the tap drinking water may be deemed safe by the EPA’s standards, but that doesn’t mean it is completely free from harmful contaminants. We all witnessed the horrible situation in Flint, Michigan, and we don’t want to think about it happening in our neck of the woods. Unfortunately, the reality is that these issues can happen anywhere.

Ease of Use

The folks at EnviroTestKits have created a quick and easy way to test your drinking water. You can select from a variety of kits that test for different contaminants. I tested the Safe Home® “Select” Drinking Water Test Kit which includes testing of three physical properties, four in-organics and eight metals.

They have also thrown in a free DIY Bacteria Test Vial (pictured above). EnviroTestKits provides details for the Safe Home® Test Kit on their website:

After you choose which drinking water test kit is best for you, you will receive a small box containing detailed instructions and three vials (one for at home bacteria test and two to mail off). You simply fill out the registration, fill the vials with tap water and drop the box in your mailbox! Return shipping is included in the price of the kit.

Within a couple of weeks, I received my water quality profile (above) via email in an easy to read format. “MDL” means minimum detection level and “MCL” means maximum contamination level, according to EPA guidelines.

Now that I know our water is free (or at least in the lower range) from some of the most harmful contaminants like lead and arsenic, I can choose a filter to get rid of the chlorine and fluoride (some believe to be harmful to overall health) and also increase the pH or soften our water using a water filtration system.

    We are all water drinkers in my household so it would be good to know that our water is safe. This looks like an easy way to get all the information.

    This is a good product. We have iron in our water, so bad it stains everything. I often wonder if there is more in there than just iron. We have a well and we don’t always have bad water, but we do use bottled water. I want to get one of these to help me know. My husband gets kidney stones and I also wonder if the iron has an impact on that also. Thanks for sharing.

    This is important, because even though city water is supposed to be treated/filtered you should still keep track of what is in your water. And for those with wells, this is a must!

    I have not seen the EnviroTestKids before but certainly need this to test the water where I live. There is always some type of sediment in my water and things floating in the water. I love that there are various test kits ranging from $14.95 – $49.95. Thanks for sharing this post as I need to order one of these kits.

    Never seen these before, great idea. Living in Michigan water quality is on everyone’s mind as you can imagine. You’d like to think your public water is safe, but the people of Flint had no idea till it was to late.

    What happened in Flint was awful. This test would give you peace of mind.
