WATER LAB
Our Water Laboratory provides basic bacteria and nitrate testing services for public drinking water systems and swimming pools, as well as private drinking water systems, pools, and spas upon request. As a certified laboratory through the Utah Department of Health Environmental Laboratory Certification Program, all analyses are conducted in accordance with strict quality control standards to ensure accurate and reliable results. Routine sampling services for public swimming pools are available for ongoing monitoring. Sampling bottles may be obtained from us (free of charge) for Water System Operators or others who are collecting their own samples. For sample submission times, holiday closures, and testing schedules, refer to our Lab Calendar.
