If you obtain drinking water from your own well, you alone are responsible for assuring that it is safe.  The question of whether or not to have your water tested is a serious one that concerns the health of you and your family.  Your water should be safe to drink and acceptable for all other household uses.  In addition to illness, a variety of less serious problems such as taste, color, odor, and staining of clothes or fixtures are symptoms of water quality problems.  Even water that appears problem-free may not necessarily be safe or acceptable.  For this reason, routine testing for a few of the most common contaminants is highly recommended.  Even if you currently have a safe, pure water supply, regular testing can be valuable because it establishes a record of water quality.  This record can be helpful in solving any future problems, should your water supply be compromised.  The table below shows typical pricing.
