HOW TO COLLECT A WATER SAMPLE

The Water Test is designed to check for a wide range of natural and chemical contaminants, including cancer-causing contaminants. If you have never had this type of test done, we strongly recommend having this done. It will give us a tremendous amount of information to help you know better about the quality of your water.

In your kit, you have received plastic or glass bottles. Please follow the appropriate instructions below.

WHERE TO COLLECT YOUR SAMPLE

The best place to collect your sample is from the kitchen sink. To prevent outside contamination or other interference, please do not remove any aerators or mixers from the tap unless there is visible contamination.

IF YOU RECEIVED A PLASTIC BOTTLE

Let cold water run for three to five minutes. This flushes out the water that is standing in your household plumbing.

Do not touch the inside of the bottle. Fill the bottle from the tap almost all the way to the top.

If you have received more than one bottle, please fill the others so that the water reaches very near the top of each one.

Cap the bottles securely. Return samples to the lab as quickly as possible.

IF YOU RECEIVED A GLASS VIAL

Fill the vial very slowly until the water bulges above the rim. Screw the cap on securely, doing your best to eliminate any airspace or bubbles.

Bubbles may form in the vial after it is capped. This is normal and does not affect your sample. Return the sample to the lab as quickly as possible.

We recommended purchasing one of our water test kits and testing your water at certified water testing location near you. Since the magnesium and calcium stays inside your water with a salt-free filter a water test will not gauge the systems effectiveness. Instead inspect your faucets and plumbing to see the benefits.

UV Protection

Our UV Purification system works by using ultraviolet light to disinfect and sterilize any pathogens, or bacteria present in your water supply. The lamp emits strong rays of ultraviolet light into the incoming water. Any incoming bacteria that encounters this light will be neutralized.

No, you will not be exposed to the UV light because we've had it designed to be fully enclosed with a sleeve and then a steel incasing so even being near the system is harmless.

Absolutely! We recommend any customer who wants to upgrade their filtration system to purchase our UV. It can be attached to your existing system any time.

General Faqs

Absolutely, city water contains high amounts of chlorine. Legally, water treatment centers must use chlorine to disinfect the water before it reaches your home. REN Water's Carbon filter will remove odors, tastes, and reduce chlorine from your water. We highly recommend adding filters to your home to protect your family and your valuable possessions.
